HUNTER DAVIS OVER HERE FROM CONWAY.

AND, ALEX ALSO OF SOUTHSIDE.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR TREND 7a ALL TOURNAMENT TEAMS.

CAROLYN, THANK YOU.

ANOTHER GREAT FIND THE SCENES LOOK AT MORE OF THE FANTASTIC COACHES.

THESE TWO FROM BERRYVILLE HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON.

THEY WERE INVOLVED IN TEAM COMPETITIONS FOR OVER 25 YEARS.

TALK ABOUT DEDICATION.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK.

WESTERN STATE REPUBLICAN SENATOR.

>> BACK WHEN IT STARTED, 1988, HARRY A REALLY REMARKABLE GUY HERE STARTED COMING UP WITH WINNING STRATEGIES.

HE CAME ON AS HIS ASSISTANT AND THEY CAME UP WITH A DIVISION OF LABOR ON THIS THAT NO ONE CAN ANSWER EVERYTHING.

YOU CAN'T RELY ON JUST ONE PERSON.

SO, ONE PERSON WOULD SPECIALIZE IN SCIENCE AND ANOTHER IN FINE ARTS LITERATURE AND MUSIC AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

COMPOSERS.

ANOTHER ONE WOULD TAKE SOCIAL STUDIES.

NOW YOU HAVE FIVE PEOPLE TO 18 AND YOU COULD REALLY SPREAD THE WEALTH THERE.

KIDS GET INTO QUIZ BOWL AND THERE SEEMS TO BE MORE OF A BROAD INTEREST.

I THINK IT IS A WINNING TRADITION AND ONCE YOU ARE ACCUSTOMED TO WINNING, IT'S AN EXPECTATION.

IN HUNTSVILLE, THEY ALWAYS EXCELLED IN THAT.

THERE IS A DESIRE TO PARTICIPATE AND WIN AND IT'S ALMOST LIKE THE PROGRAM SOLD ITSELF.

BILL ALWAYS KEPT US IN LINE.

KEPT US ON TRACK.

HE ALSO REALLY HELPED US TO FIND WHERE OUR STRENGTHS WERE AND TO PLAY TO THE STRENGTHS AND DID NOTHING TO ENCOURAGE US AND SUPPORT US AND WHATEVER WE TRIED TO DO.

>> I ENJOYED LEARNING.

YOU DON'T START WITH A LOT OF THE KNOWLEDGE.

YOU REALLY GET TO SOME AREAS THAT YOU MAY HAVE NEVER DREAMED OF HAVING KNOWLEDGE OF WHATSOEVER.

>> ONE THING I WOULD TELL PEOPLE IS, IT'S NOT EXACTLY WHAT THEY THINK IT IS.

IT'S FUN TO LEARN ABOUT ALL THE DIFFERENT THINGS AND PEOPLE MIGHT THINK IT'S NERDY OR SOMETHING BUT IT'S COOL TO BE A NERD AND FUN TO KNOW A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS AND TO BE SMART.

>> QUIZ BOWL TAUGHT ME A LOT ABOUT PLAYING TO YOUR STRENGTHS.

WE HAVE A LOT OF STRATEGIES GOING INTO EVERY GAME.

IT ALSO TAUGHT ME A LOT ABOUT THE KNOWLEDGE AND LEARNING THINGSTHAT YOU WOULD NOT NORMALLY LEARN EVERY DAY .

>> I'VE DONE A LOT OF REGIONAL TOURNAMENTS AS FAR AS MODERATING AND FOR JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOL.

I HAVE WRITTEN A NUMBER OF TOURNAMENTS WITH PRACTICE QUESTIONS FOR HUNTSVILLE.

I'M STILL TRYING TO BE A VIABLE PART OF IT.

IT'S HELPED US IN SEVERAL WAYS THROUGHOUT THE YEARS.

EVER SINCE WE LEFT, HE HAS COME TO HELP MODERATE GAMES AND PLAN THEM AND HE ADVISES US AND HE'S ALWAYS BEEN THERE FOR MORAL SUPPORT TO HELP US WITH ANY INTRICACIES IF WE NEED EXTRA MONEY TO SUPPORT CERTAIN THINGS , HE KNOWS WHO TO TALK TO END THE COMMUNITY.

HE ALSO HELPED TILT UP A BUNCH OF GAMES FOR WHATEVER WE NEED IN THE FUTURE [MUSIC] I LOVE IT.

I STILL WANT TO BE A PART OF IT IN WHATEVER WAY I CAN.

KNOW SOME SCHOOLS HAVE A QUIZ BOWL TEAM THAT THE COACH IS SAYING THEY ARE GOING TO WIN AT ALL COST AND YOU HAVE TO BE DEDICATED.

YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING ELSE.

BUT, IN MY SITUATION, IT WAS MORE OF A PLACE FOR KIDS TO COME TOGETHER AND HAVE A PLACE.

MAYBE WE DIDN'T WIN EVERY GAME BUT THAT'S OKAY.

WE ENJOYED SPENDING TIME TOGETHER AND HAVE FUN.

THAT WAS THE PART I ENJOYED THAT I GOT TO REALLY KNOW THESE KIDS AND ENJOY THEM.

THE FIRST QUIZ BOWL TEAM THAT I HAD WAS IN 1988.

MY FIRST YEAR OF TEACHING AND THE PRINCIPAL SAID, BY THE WAY, YOUR UNCLE IS A QUIZ BOWL COACH BUT I HAD A REALLY GREAT GROUP OF KIDS AND WE WENT TO SPRINGDALE AND PLAYED AGAINST SPRINGDALE AND ONE .

THAT GOT ME REALLY HOOKED.

I SAID I COULD GET GROUPS OF KIDS THAT COULD DO THAT I WILL STICK WITH IT.

AND, WE HAVE HAD UP AND DOWN YEARS BUT HAD A GREAT TEAM THAT JUST KEPT ME GOING.

IT'S NOT THE WINNING THE GAME, IT'S HELPING THE KIDS IN BUILDING THE RELATIONSHIP.

I HAD SEVERAL KIDS AND I WAS THE ONE WHO GAVE THEM HUGS.

ONE NAME WESLEY WHO WAS ONE OF THOSE KIDS WHO COULD ABSORB ANYTHING WHETHER IT WAS HISTORY ORSPORTS OR WHATEVER .

HE WAS JUST ONE OF THESE THAT COULD DO A MATH PROBLEM AND ROLL HIS EYES UP AND COME BACK WITH THE ANSWER.

WE WERE REFERRED HIM AS THE ONE WHO DROVE THE BUS.

HE IS, LAST I HEARD, WORKING FOR A COMPUTER COMPANY AND I HEAR FROM HIM EVERY NOW AND THEN.

WHO CAME TO SEE ME LAST NOVEMBER.

HE IS LIVING IN CALIFORNIA AND HE WAS ONE WHO JOINED QUIZ BOWL BECAUSE IT WAS A GROUP WHERE HE COULD FIT.

HE TOLD ME THAT HAVING THIS GROUP AND HAVING QUIZ BOWL AND ME MADE HIS LIFE.

IF THAT IS NOT PAYMENT FOR THIS
