YOU MIGHT USE CATEGORY NUMBER TWO.

WORLD CAPITALS ARE AND IDENTIFY THE CAPITALS OF THESE NATIONS OF THE WORLD.

OR YOU MIGHT WANT PATHOLOGY.

IDENTIFY THE FOLLOWING FROM NORSE MYTHOLOGY.

TEAMS HAVE ONE MINUTE TO DECIDE.

>> IS A CLOSE GAME.

TODAY.

>>Steve: LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT FOR A MINUTE.

STEPHEN SARDI TOUCHED ON THIS.

THE STUDENTS HAVE NO CALCULATORS.

IT'S A PENCIL AND A PIECE OF PAPER AND THEY HAVE 20 SECONDS.

SOME OFTHE QUESTIONS.

I TAUGHT MASTER SEVERAL TIMES .

THE STUDENTS COULD GET THEM, I'M SURE, BUT WHEN YOU KNOW YOU HAVE 20 SECONDS AND YOU TRYING TO FIND WAYS YOU CAN CUT CORNERS AND IN DOING SO, IT WILL CAUSE YOU TO GO TO AN ANSWER THAT MAY SOUND LIKE YOU MISSED IT A BUNCH BUT YOU DIDN'T.

THERE WERE SEVERAL THAT INVOLVED WERE LOOKING AT PECTORALS.

THAT CAN GET TRICKY.

ESPECIALLY IN YOUR TRYING TO DO A LOT OF THE CALCULATIONS IN YOUR HEAD.

I WOULD NOT SELL EITHER TEAM SHORT ON THEIR MATH ABILITY.

THERE ARE THREE OR FOUR OF THEM UP THERE IMPRESS ME WITH THEIR MATH.

WE MAY SEE THIS LATER ON IN THE GAME.

I THINK I'M SEEING SOME NERVES.

THEY ARE SITTING THERE.

THEY ARE A LITTLE TIGHT.

ONE THING I APPRECIATE THAT I SAW POLASKY ACADEMY DO WAS WHEN HE GAVE HIS ANSWER, IT KIND OF RELAXED EVERYBODY.

THAT REALLY A SMART MOVE.

WHEN HE CAME OUT WITH THAT, IT WAS A LAST QUESTION ON THE QUARTER.

>>Vickie : AFTER BREAK THE ICE A LITTLE BIT.

EVERYONE IS WATCHING AT HOME SO IT'S NOT LIKE YOU ARE SITTING IN A LIBRARY.

>>Bill: AND YOU HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO WATCH OTHER GAMES PLAYED.

>>Vickie : THIS IS THE FIRST OUT THE GATE.

IT IS A GOOD GAME AND THERE ARE MORE AHEAD.

>>Bill: LOTS MORE.

THERE IS GOING TO BE A LOT FIREWORKS IN THIS GAME, I'M SURE.

>>Vickie : THE LIGHTNING ROUND AND THOSE THREE TOPICS.

WHAT YOU SAY.

WORLD CAPITALS OR MYTHOLOGY THE FIRST ONE, I'M NOTEVEN SURE I CAN PRONOUNCE.

LET ALONE GET THOSE QUESTIONS.

>>Bill: ANYONE OF THOSE, THERE WILL HAVE A GREAT BIT OF KNOWLEDGE.

I WOULD BE SURPRISED IF BOTH TEAMS DON'T ANSWER AT LEAST SEVEN OR EIGHT OF THOSE .

WORLD CAPITALS CAN GET CRAZY BECAUSE THERE WILL BE THOSE OUTLIERS OUT THERE THAT YOU WILL THINK I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT WAS A COUNTRY, BUT THEY WILL HAVE STUDIED THEM, THEY WILL KNOW.

>>Vickie : THEY ARE AWFULLY SMART.

EVEN TO GET TO THIS POINT YOU HAVE TO BE VERY SMART.

WHAT WE ARE SEEINGTODAY, THE NERVES.

ONCE THOSE DISSIPATE , THINGS WILL PICK UP EVEN MORE.

>>Bill: WE WILL SEE SOME FIREWORKS AT THE END OF THE GAME.

>>Vickie : I THINK WE ARE GETTING CLOSE TO GETTING READY TO GO BACK OVER OUR QUIZ MASTER, STEVE, AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE LIGHTNING ROUND, WHICH IS OUR FIRST ONE FOR THE DAY.

SO WE HAVE MORE MATCHES THIS MORNING AND WE WILL TAKE THAT 90 MINUTE BREAK.

LET'S GO BACK TO STEVE FOR THE LIGHTNING ROUND.

STEVE?

>>Steve: THANK YOU, VICKI.

WE ARE BACK FOR THIS EXCITING 5A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

VERY CLOSE GAME.

THIS LIGHTNING ROUND CATEGORY WE ASK EACH SCHOOL 10 QUESTIONS WITHIN ONE MINUTE, MANY OF THOSE TENNIS WE CAN GET IN WITHIN ONE MINUTE.

THEIR CHANCE TO GET AT LEAST 100 POINTS.

IF THEY RUN THE WHOLE CATEGORY AND GET EVERYONE RIGHT TO GET A BONUS OF 20 POINTS.

THIS CAN BE A MAKE OR BREAK GROUND FOR A SCHOOL SO WE ARE EXCITED.

DURING THE BREAK POLASKY ACADEMY CHOSE THE TOPIC OF WORLD CAPITALS AND THEY BROUGHT IN MADISON AND JAKE TO HELP THEM PLAY THE GAME.

ROCK CHRISTIAN CHOSE POLYATOMIC IONS AND THEY BROUGHT IN MATTHEW AND PHILIP, THE BROTHERS ARE IN TODAY TO HELP THEM WITH THEIR LIGHTING ROUND CATEGORY.

SEVERE EXCITED.

WITH 60 SECONDS ON OUR CLOCK OVER HERE AND WE ARE GOING TO BEGIN WITH THE TEAM THAT IS A LITTLEBEHIND.

POLASKY CAN MEET.

YOU COULD GO FIRST AND YOU'VE CHOSEN WORLD CAPITALS .

WHEN YOU GIVE AN ANSWER, LOOKED DIRECTLY AT ME AND SPEAK VERY LOUDLY AND TELL ME YOUR ANSWER.

[ INAUDIBLE ] >>Steve: THAT'S NOT WHAT I HAVE.

MALTA IS THE OTHER ONE.

HE HAD TO GET THAT ACCENT IN THERE SO I HAD TO MAKE SURE.

SO THEY PICKED UP TO BONUS FOR THEM SO 20 POINTS ON THAT, BUT NOW DUSTIN, IT'S YOUR TURN.

YOUR TEAM TO TELL US ALL ABOUT POLYATOMIC IONS AND OUR AUDIENCE WILL ENJOY THIS.

THEY PROBABLY DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT POLYATOMIC IONS.

YOU ARE GOING TO BE ASKED TO NAME THE POLYATOMIC ION WHEN SUPPLIED WITH THIS CHEMICAL FORMULA FOR POLASKY ACADEMY, YOU BE READY FOR ANY DOWN THE MAY GIVE YOU.

ARE YOU READY?

NAME THE POLYATOMIC ION WHEN SUPPLIED WITH ITS CHEMICAL FORMULA.

>>Steve: GREAT JOB.

ALL RIGHT.

AS I MENTIONED BEFORE SINCE THEY RAN THE CATEGORY AND GOT ALL 10, TO GET A 20 POINT BONUS AS WELL SO CONGRATULATION THAT.

THAT TAKES US TO THE END OF ROUND THREE.

I THINK WE MAY HAVE A CHALLENGE AND WE MIGHT WANT TO SUBSTITUTE AS WELL SO WE ARE GOING TO TAKE A SHORT BREAK WHILE WE DO THAT.

>>Vickie : WE KNEW THINGS WOULD GET REALLY INTERESTING.

TODAY NOT JUST DO A REALLY GREAT JOB WITH THAT?

THAT'S OUTSTANDING.

EXPECTED WHEN LITTLE ROCK CHRISTIAN DREW THAT.

I WATCH THEM AS THEY WERE WORKING ON THAT.

YES, WE EITHER KNEW THAT INFORMATION YOU DON'T KNOW THAT INFORMATION.

ACTUALLY, IF YOU KNOW THAT IT'S EASIER THE CAPITALS.

I'M NOT SURE OF THE CHALLENGES, BUT GENERALLY ON CAPITALS IF YOU HAVE ONE THAT WAS MISSED PRONOUNCED, THAT MIGHT BE AND HE'S ASKING THE JUDGES IF THEY DID BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT.

CHALLENGES ARE FIVE MINUTES AT THE MAX AND JUDGES WILL HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION DURING THAT TIME.

THE INFORMATION THAT IS GIVEN TO THEM HAS TO BE PRINTED INFORMATION.

YOU CAN'T TAKE A LAPTOP UP THERE.

YOU MIGHT GET JUNK ON IT.

YOU TAKE A PRINTED COPY OF THEIR, PRESENT IT TO THEM AND I WOULD BE WILLING TO BET IS PROBABLY GOING TO BE PRONUNCIATION.

>>Vickie : STEVE DID RAISE A QUESTION ABOUT THE PRONUNCIATION.

WE WILL SEE HOW IT PLAYS OUT AS ONE.

LET'S GO BACK OVER OUR QUIZ MASTER.

>>Steve: WELCOME BACK TO OUR 5A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP RING WE HAD A CHALLENGE AT THE END OF OUR THIRD-ROUND.

WE ARE GOING TO GET OUR JUDGES FOR THEIR DECISION.

>> MISPRONUNCIATION ONE OF THE LIGHTNING ROUND WORDS AND WE HAVE DENIED THE CHALLENGE BECAUSE THE WORLD THE STATE IF THE SYLLABLES ARE CLOSE THAT IT IS DENIED.

SO NO POINTS DEDUCTED OR AWARDED.

ON THAT ONE.

>>Steve: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WE HAVE ANOTHER CHALLENGE NOW COMING FROM POLASKY ECONOMY AND SO THEY HAVE FIVE MINUTES TO MAKE THAT CHALLENGE.

IT USUALLY DOESN'T TAKE FIVE MINUTES BUT WE WILL TAKE ANOTHER BREAK YOUR WE HAVE OUR CHALLENGE.

>>Vickie : NO ONE IS WILLING TO GIVE UP WHAT YOU.

THERE IS ANOTHER CHALLENGE FROM ANOTHER TEAM.

>>Bill: I DID NOT REALIZE THAT.

WHAT WE SAW WAS THAT THAT WAS A PRONUNCIATION IN THE JUDGES HAVE TO BE VERY ALERT ALL THE WAY THROUGH THESE GAMES BECAUSE IF THERE IS A MISPRONOUNCED ANSWER THEY HAVE TO TAKE THE FIRST ANSWER IS GIVEN.

BUT A LOT OF TIMES, WORDS CAN BE PRONOUNCED DIFFERENT.

ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE GIVEN NAMES.

CAPITALS MIGHT BE CALLED WHEN THEM BUT IF THEY ALSO HAVE AN ACCEPTABLE DIFFERENT PRONUNCIATION ANDTHAT'S WHEN I HAD SUSPECTED ON THIS.

I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THE CHALLENGE .

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY WOULD BE JUDGMENT.

LITTLE ROCK ARE CHRISTIAN HAVE THE ONE THE LODGE THE FIRST CHALLENGE AND LIKE STEVE HAD SAID AND WE SAID HERE, CHALLENGES ARE FIVE MINUTES MAX .

THAT HAS TO BE SETTLED IN THAT LENGTH OF TIME.

NORMALLY IT WILL TAKE 30 SECONDS TO A MINUTE, BUT YOU HAVE TO PRESENT MATERIAL THAT IS TEXTBOOK.

SOME KIND OF PRINTED MATERIAL.

THAT'S WHY YOU WILL SEE A LOT OF WORDS THAT OUR AUDIENCE DOESN'T SEE ON THE SIDELINES.

>>Vickie : ANY SEE THEM COME IN WITH THESE LARGE.

>>Bill: RIGHT.

THEY HAVE LOTS OF BOOKS.

AND THEN YOU WILL HAVE STUDENTS THAT YOU MAY NEVER SEE PLAY, BUT THEY ARE IN THE BACKGROUND AND THEIR LISTENING AND THEY ARE PART OF THE TEAM BECAUSE THEY WILL RESEARCH THESE.

I HAVE SEEN LOTS OF TIMES COACHES WOULD MISS A CHALLENGE AND A STUDENT WOULD TAP THEM ON THE SHOULDER.

I'M NOT VERY GOOD IN THE LANGUAGE FOR ENGLISH SIDE OF THE STUDY.

THE MATH AND SCIENCE I CAN COVER PRETTY WELL.

THEY SAY, MR. DAVIS, YOU GOT THIS AND THEY WOULD WRITE IT UP.

I WALKED TO THE TABLE AND HANDED OVER WE WOULD GET THE CHALLENGE.

>>Vickie : REALLY IS A TEAM SPORT.

>>Bill: VERY MUCH.

WATCH THESE PLAYERS, NOT JUST IN THE BONUS ROUND, NOT JUST IN THE 62ND ROUND.

WATCH THESE PLAYERS EVEN IN THE TOSS AROUND AND THEY KNOW WHO HAVE STUDIED THAT.

IT WILL BE TOO ENTRY THAT WOULD HAVE STUDY CERTAIN AREAS AND THEY WILL RELY ON THEM.

>>Vickie : LET'S GO BACK TO STEVE.

>>Steve: WELCOME BACK TO OUR 5A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME AND WE HAD ANOTHER CHALLENGE.

MY POLASKY ACADEMY.

WE ARE GOING TO GO TO OUR JUDGES FOR THE EXPLANATION IN RESPONSE.

>>> WE HAD ANOTHER CHALLENGE ON OUR MISPRONUNCIATION.

IT WAS ACETATE WITH THE TEAM SAID IT EXACTLY THE WAY IT IS SPELLED SO WE ARE NEITHER DEDUCTING POINTS OR ADDING POINTS EITHER TEAM.

CHALLENGE TONIGHT.

>>Steve: WE HAVE HAD TWO CHALLENGES.

BOTH VERY GOODCHALLENGES .

IF COACHES WANT TO MAKE SURE THEY DO THE BEST FOR THE TEAM BUT IN BOTH CASES YOU NOTICE THE JUDGES DENIED THE CHALLENGE SO THAT HASN'T CHANGED OUR SCORE.

AT THE END OF THREE ROUNDS OF OUR FOUR ROUNDS OF PLAY LITTLE ROCK CHRISTIAN HAS 245, POLASKY ECONOMY HAS 155.

WE ARE 20 QUESTIONS LEFT, 200 POINTS UP FOR GRABS SO THIS IS STILL A VERY CLOSE AND EXCITING GAME.

[ APPLAUSE ] >>Vickie : CONGRATULATIONS.

THAT WAS A HARD-FOUGHT BATTLE.

BETTER BOTH TEAMS PERFORM THE SECOND.

>>Vickie : EXACTLY.

THEY WERE MUCH MORE INTO THE GAME AND MORE FOCUSED IN THE SECOND HALF.

EITHER OF THESE TEAMS, IF YOU PLAY THEM AGAIN COULD WIN THIS GAME.

THIS WAS REALLY A GOOD GAME.

HAVE TO SAY THIS.

ECONOMY WAS DOWN WHEN HE WENT INTO THE FOURTH QUARTER.

COULD'VE JUST SAT THERE.

THEY DIDN'T.

THEY GOT IT DOWN TO THE LAST TWO QUESTIONS.

IF THEY COULD ANSWER THOSE LAST TWO QUESTIONS, THEY WOULD HAVE PUT THIS GAME INTO OVERTIME DANIEL WAS PRETTY AMAZING.

HE BROUGHT THE TEAM FORWARD.

LITTLE ROCK CHRISTIAN IS AN EXCELLENT TEAM, EXCELLENT COACH .

BOTH THESE TEAMS WERE VERY GOOD TEAMS.

>>Vickie : AND YOU SEE WHAT WE ARE IN STORE FOR THE REST OF THE DAY BECAUSE WE ARE OFF TO A GREAT START HERE BUT WAS GOING OUT TO DEBBIE ADAM AND CAROLYN TRY.

CONGRATULATIONS.

[ APPLAUSE ] >>> CONGRATULATIONS.

THANK YOU.

WELL, YOU HAVE SEEN THEM PERFORM.

LET'S GO BEHIND THE SCENES AND TAKE A LOOK OUT STUDENTS FROM SCHOOLS FROM DIFFERENT SIZES PREPARE THEIR TEAMS.

HOW TO HANDLE POTENTIAL CONFLICTS ON TODAY.

WILL THE LARGEST SCHOOL HAVE AN ADVANTAGE?

LET'S TAKE A LOOK.

>> BEING A SMALL SCHOOL KIDS ARE INVOLVED IN EVERYTHING.

I HAVE ONE STUDENT IN PARTICULAR.

HE PLAYS BASEBALL, HE PLAYS BASKETBALL, QUIZ BOWL, HE'S AT A CHASE MEETING RIGHT NOW.

ONE OF THE STUDENT CLUBS.

SO THEY ARE INVOLVED IN SO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS.

SOMETIMES IT BECOMES DIFFICULT FOR THEM WITH ACTIVITIES OVERLAPPING, WHEREAS LARGER SCHOOLS YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO FOCUS ON ONE OR TWO THINGS.

THEY ENTERED THIS YEAR WITH CERTAIN GOALS FOR CERTAIN TOURNAMENTS AND CERTAIN SCHOOLS WE WANT TO COMPETE WELL AGAINST THAT SORT OF THING.

AND KEEP THEM ACTIVELY INVOLVED.

I KNOW IF WE DON'T PRACTICE REGULARLY WE SEE A SMALL LOSS AND THAT.

YOU WILL HAVE SOME THAT ARE THE K, WE NEED TO PRACTICE ANY OF OTHERS THAT WILL START GOING AWAY IF YOU DON'T MEET REGULARLY.

IT'S ABOUT KEEPING IT FUN FOR THEM, KEEPING THEM INVOLVED IN SETTING GOALS THEY CAN REACH A CHALLENGE TO GET THERE.

>> A GOOD QUIZ BOWL PLAYER TO ME IS ONE WHO IS NATURALLY CURIOUS AND THEY WILL GO STUDY ON THEIR OWN.

BECAUSE.

WHEN THEY ARE YOUNGER, I LIKE TO WORK A LOT MORE ON TECHNIQUE, COMPETITION, PLAYING TOGETHER.

OF COURSE WE COVER A LOT OF CONTENT.

THE OLDER THEY GET, IT'S VERY EXCITING TO SEE THEM EXPLORE THE AREAS OF INTEREST FOR THEM.

>> EVERY STUDENT KNOW SOMETHING ANOTHER STUDENT DOESN'T.

YOU KNOW SOMETHING AND YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE IN SOME WAY SHAPE OR FORM.

YOU MAY NOT BE AN ALL-STAR, YOU WON'T KNOW UNTIL YOU GET IN THERE AND TRY.

I GUARANTEE IF YOU SIT DOWN AND LISTENTO THESE QUESTIONS AND HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH US, YOU WILL REALIZE HEY, I KNOW THAT.

I COULD'VE DONE THAT .

SOMETIMES KIDS NEED SOMETHING THEY CAN CONNECT TO.

NOT EVERY KID IS AN ATHLETE, NOT EVERY KID IS A STRAIGHT A STUDENT BUT THEY KNOW THINGS AND MAYBE THEY LIKE TRIVIA ASPECT OF IT.

THERE ARE WAYS TO GET INVOLVED INSCHOOL .

>> YOU GET TO LEARN A LOT OF WEIRD, COOL INFORMATION WILL HE WOULD THINK ABOUT OTHERWISE AND YOU GET TO SHOW YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND DIFFERENT TOPICS.

IF THEY ARE NOT SMART MOUTH BUT SUPERSMART IN SCIENCE AND YOU GET TO SHOW OFF AND SAY HEY, I CAN'T DO THIS BUT I CAN DO THIS REALLY WELL AND YOU ALSO BE A LOT OF FUN PEOPLE .

DURING THE QUIZ BOWL AND WE STILL TALK.

I'M MORE LIKE MYSELF.

I'M OKAY WITH MYSELF NOW.

I'M NOT RESERVED AS MUCH AS I WAS IN FIFTH GRADE AND NOW IT'S A FUN THING I GET TO DO.

>> HAS BEEN THE SAME SINCE I WAS IN FIFTH GRADE.

THE PEOPLE WE GET TO SEE MORE THAN ON THE OUTSIDE.

YOU SEE HOW MUCH THEY KNOW AND WHAT THEY STUDY WHAT THEIR INTERESTS ARE.

THAT WILL ALWAYS CHANGE, BUT THE GAME ITSELF STAYS THE SAME.

>> WE GO TO ADDITIONAL TERMS.

WE TRAVELED TO PARAGOULD, WE GO TO THESE BIGGER SCHOOLS AND WE COMPETE SO THAT WHENEVER REGIONAL AND STATE TOURNAMENTS COME AROUND WE HAVE GONE UP AGAINST THE BEST.

WE HAVE GONE UP AGAINST BIGGER SCHOOLS.

THROUGH THOSE EXPERIENCES, I DON'T THINK OUR STUDENTS ARE REALLY AFRAID OF THAT.

THEY LIKETHE CHALLENGE .

BIGGER SCHOOLS, BETTER SCHOOLS, THE CHALLENGE ITSELF.

>> ANY STUDENT WHO IS THINKING ABOUT QUIZ BOWL AND IS NOT SURE, COME ON AND TRY.

NO ONE PERSON KNOWS EVERY ANSWER TO THE QUESTIONS.

EVERYONE BRINGSTHEIR OWN .

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE GOOD AT EVERYTHING, BUT IF YOU ARE QUICK ON CERTAIN SUBJECTS, YOU CAN REALLY HELP THE TEAM.

>> I LOVE THE FACT QUIZ BOWL CHALLENGES PEOPLE IN WAYS THEY HAVEN'T REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT.

THEY HAVE TO BE ABLE TO CONNECT PIECES OF INFORMATION THEY MAY HAVE NEVER THOUGHT WAS RELEVANT AND MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF IT INTANGIBLE THEY HAVE TO DO IT UNDER TIME.

I ALSO ENJOY THE FACT QUIZ BOWL IS AN ACADEMICALLY BASED SORT OF EVENT, WHICH TIES AWFULLY THEY ARE DOING WELL IN THEIR CLASSES TO THE CONTENT.

>> I LIKE LEARNING ABOUT ALL KINDS OF FACTS SO AS WELL IT QUIZ BOWL SO MUCH.

EVEN IF I GET A QUESTION WRONG OR ILL IS AGAIN, LIKE OH, NOW I KNOW THE SUBJECT OR NO I KNOW THAT.

>> WE SOMETIMES RUN TWO OR THREE PRACTICES A WEEK JUST SO WE CAN GET EVERYBODY IN HERE.

WE HAVE A FORMAL PRACTICE LATER IN THE WEEK AND FORMAL PRACTICE EARLIER IN THE WEEK .

DURING BAND AND FOOTBALL SEASON WE END UP WITH A LOT OF PLAYERS FOR MOST OF THE FALL AND TRY TO WORK THEM IN.

I DO SHARE WITH THEM SOME ONLINE COURSES FOR STUDY BUT THAT IS CERTAINLY NOT THE SAME AS GAMEPLAY AND PRACTICE.

IT IS A CHALLENGE.

>> EVERYBODY STARTS OFF AS A PLAYER.

WE PARTICIPATE IN THE SPORT IN ANY GIVEN POINT YOU CAN BE CALLED ON TO PLAY.

WE DON'T LOOK AT IT FROM THE STANDPOINT OF YOU ONLY DO RESEARCH YOU ONLY PLAY.

WE TIE THESE THINGS TOGETHER.

NOW, DURING THE EARLY YEAR I WORKED REALLY HARD.

REALLY HARD TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY GETS TIME ON THE BUZZER, EVERYBODY GETS A CHANCE TO PLAY.

AS WE MOVE CLOSER TO REGIONALS AND STATE, YOU HOLD THAT IN.

MUCH LIKE TAKE COACHING AND FOOTBALL OR BEST QUALITY WOULD GO FROM 10 OR 12 PLAYERS TO HIS FOUR OR FIVE CORE PLAYERS BY THE END OF THE YEAR.

THAT'S WHAT WE TRY TO DO.

>> I ALWAYS LIKE THAT QUIZ BOWL PEOPLE WERE OUT OF THE SCHOOL SMART AND THEY ARE JUST EVERYDAY PEOPLE WHO LIKE TO USE WHAT THEY KNOW IN A COMPETITION.>> IS A LOT OF FUN COMPETITION .

FOUR OR FIVE OR SIX TIMES A YEAR WE HAVE A COMPETITION ON A SATURDAY WILL BE COMPETE WITH OTHER TEAMS.

>> YOU WILL SURPRISE YOURSELF IF YOU DO THIS BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN I FIRST JOINED, IT WAS LIKE I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING, I'M NOT GOING TO BE A GOOD PLAYER ON THETEAM , I'M JUST GOING TO HOLD THE TEAM BACK A LOT OF QUESTIONS THEY ASK YOU WOULD BE SURPRISED HOW MUCH YOU ACTUALLY KNOW AND REMEMBER.

SO IF YOU TAKE THE TIME, MAYBE STUDY FEW SUBJECTS YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THEN WE WILL SURPRISE YOUR TEAMMATES, YOUR COACH AND YOURSELF ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE ABLE TO DO WHAT YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH AND HOW YOU CAN HELP THE TEAM.

>> THE NUMBER ONE THING IS NOT JUST YOUR INTELLIGENCE, IT IS YOUR WILLINGNESS TO FAIL.

YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO ACCEPT THE FACT YOU ARE NOT GOING TO KNOW EVERY ANSWER.

IF YOU SIT AT A QUIZ BOWL WE WOULD ONLY BRING ON THE QUESTIONS YOU KNOW, YOU WILL NEVER BE GOOD AT QUIZ BOWL.

YOU HAVE TO TAKE A SHOT.

YOU HAVE TO HEAR PART OF A QUESTION AGO I THINK I KNOW WHERE THIS IS GOING AND HAVE TO GAMBLE AND HAVE TO SHOOT AT THAT.

IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO PULL THAT OFF, QUIZ BOWL IS PROBABLY NOT GOING TO BE THIS WORK FOR YOU.

IF YOU ARE NOT AFRAID OF MAKING MISTAKES AND YOU WERE WILLING TO PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE AND YOU HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF
