COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – The Saint Charles Borromeo Catholic School Quiz Bowl team participated on Saturday in a National Association of Quiz Teams competition. The tournament consisted of over 40 teams from 11 states and the Saint Charles team finished the tournament in 25th place.
This was the first virtual quiz bowl tournament the Saint Charles team has competed in. Team members were able to participate using a combination of Zoom meetings and a buzzer program on their Chromebooks. With the use of this technology the teams were able to compete as though they were in the same room.
The team from Saint Charles had a good run but came up short of making it into the afternoon playoff round with a 275 to 230 loss to the team from Wayzayta Middle School in Plymouth Minnesota.
They finished the day with a record of 2-3. The Saint Charles team is hoping to compete at least one more time this year in an N.A.Q.T. tournament.
