Speech Debate Tournament

Please help us in congratulating the following ... after a grueling weekend, with hundreds of competitors, about 1200, we have the following victories to celebrate ...

1. Mrs. Garcia and Mrs. Lohmann maintained heroes status with the speech and debate team as they traveled with them to help judge and support the world of words! YAY ... awesome support staff and super cool peeps! 
2. Young debaters flourished and were able to break out of the preliminary rounds and get into double octos, then octos, then quarters  (Which is a fancy way to say the top 14 of the tournament)... way to go: Aashril Shazar  & Dhruva Kolikineni!!!  As a side note, Aashril took 9th speaker for the entire tournament, which is saying something, that means against the entire field of competitors, regardless of his rank, his speaking was among the best! YAHOOOOO!!! 
3. Speech students and funny guys also did well ... please congratulate: Mohaned Ali He took 9th place over all and made it to the semi finals &  Brianna Do made it to finals and took 7th place overall!! 

It was a rather difficult weekend, late nights and really early mornings and lots of driving and these kids still rocked!!!

Proud to be a Mustang ...
