BMS Speech & Debate

This past weekend, our BMS Debate Team competed at Union's Speech and Debate tournament. Here are the results;

Lincoln Douglas Debate: Madison Gillman (7th) only lost one round out of 6 to claim 1st place

Public Forum Debate: Trace Speth (8) & Mason Brooks (8) went undefeated to win 1st

Lesley Chance (8) & Jonathan Kruger (8) only lost one round to claim 3rd

7th grader Joe Buck earned 2nd place in Extemporaneous speaking and 3rd place in Poetry.

As a team BMS also brought home a 1st place sweepstakes trophy!

This is by far the largest tournament we will compete in all year and our students did amazing! And a huge shout-out to three 8th graders that decided to compete in a higher division against high school students, including a multi time state and national qualifier. Emma Wright, Noah Keifer, and Liberty Johnson did an amazing job and held their own!

Congratulations Coach Engledow and Crew! Great Job!
