Wild and Woolly Speech Team

A wild and woolly weekend for the Speech team. On Friday the speech team entered the National Forensic League Central Division tournament. With over 1,000 competitors, Vince Puzak and Aswar Rahman advanced to the final rounds in Extemp Speaking on Saturday. Aswar went on to become the very first Southwest student to participate in the NFL National qualifying final round.

At the same time, on Saturday at the Hilke Tournament in South St. Paul other members of the Speech Team moved up to the awards podium.

In Humorous Interpretation Alison Graba earned a tie for 2nd place
In Impromptu Speaking Avi Gori earned a 5th place finish
In Informative Speaking Mirah Oxley also tied for 2nd place
Brodin Jentz was in 4th place in Original Oratory

The team ended the two days with an entire team of winners. This Thursday is the 6AA state Qualifier rounds. Good luck speech team.
