Debate Team News- Choate Tournament, January 10, 2016

Ten debaters and three judges made the trip up a windy, rain-soaked highway to Walllingford on Sunday to take part in a sixteen-school DANEIS tournament sponsored by Choate Rosemary Hall. Though the competition, like the weather, posed quite a challenge to the four Advanced Pairs of Phil Motter/Maisa DellaValle, Jonas Lustbader/Connor Sandagata, Laszlo Gendler/Kristof Pusztai and Elie Azoff-Slifstein/Jing Jing Wang, and one Novice Pair of Sam Applegate/Eric Lin, all five tandems worked hard, posting scattered wins and overall strong (80/100 or better) speaker points. Coach Hunter would like to thank Dr. Tamar Gendler and Dr. Allison Resnick for help with Judging, without which no participation is possible. The next tourney for the team will be in the State League (CDA) in early February.
