KMO

 

Lost in all of my Quizbusting quizbowling blogging was the last event of the fall, Knowledge Master Open.  Kevin has been doing this since Chippewa; anyone can participate, you get a room full of kids and attempt to answer as many questions you can (the same questions as all of the other schools) over a 90(?) minute period.  Highest score wins.

We did not win.  The team, when they talk about DCC, talk in awestruck tones about a team that practices every day at lunch for two hours and an advisor who is absolutely dedicated to quiz-type-dominance. 

So how did they do?

11 out of 551 is not bad!

You may be curious how other schools of note did….

would have finished 2nd overall in PA.

and would have been first in FL.  would have been first in GA too, but there were no recognizable schools on the list.
