Prom 2019
The 2018-2019 High Quiz Bowl season ended with jubilation as the Northwood Evergreen team battled to the championship title at the CESA #12 tournament on Wednesday. Knowledge was tested and wits were matched question for question, with the audience on the edge of our seats. Ultimately the Mighty Evergreens kept calm, answered wisely, pulled ahead, and took home the First Place Trophy.
Please congratulate Jade, Haakon, Margaret, and Lucas for this great accomplishment, the first time Northwood has taken the first place tourney trophy.
It was awesome to watch.
Game One: Beat Drummond 65-40
Game Two: Beat Phillips 85-35
Game Three: Beat South Shore 80-50
Game Four: Beat Ashland 60-55
Game Five: Defeated by Ashland 45-50
But it is a double-elimination tournament so we played them again...
FINAL GAME: Beat Ashland 45-30
