Why was Madeleine Houck allowed to compete as a novice when she had debated last season? Isn't the novice division limited to students in their first year of debate?
some of the JV teams were 3rd year debaters- not really fair in my opinion.
But some debaters debated high school topics when they were in eighth grade.
I think these results are correct for JV Policy:
Georgetown Day d. Dunwoody
Pine Crest d. GBS
Iowa City West d. Bronx
Woodward d. Greenhill
Marquette d. UChicago
GBS d. Mt. Hebron
Johns Creek d. Centennial
Mountain Brook d. Westminster
anyone notice that novice policy division was 16 teams and 16 schools! In JV policy, it was 16 teams and 15 schools. That is pretty cool!
Should be Greenhill d. Woodward. Oops.
If she debated at all last year then she isn’t eligible to compete as a novice this year. We didn’t check anyone’s eligibility: we just took coaches at their word.
Anything for Novice Melanie?
@Secret Agent Man
Nope, sorry.
@Interested Novice
I was wondering the same thing!
