Viking Middle School made a marvelous showing with one of the three largest teams at the tournament. With a total of 54 students in twenty-eight entries, B-W had a great night. Every student who participated had at least one A in the three round tournament. Four students, Abby Hanson, Anna Perry, Lauren Zupfer in playacting and Zach Walker in prose had ratings of straight A plus. Also receiving at least one A plus that evening were: Colton Langer, Griffin Jensen, Caroline Dobson, Hannah Phelps, Brooke Mikla, Megan Jacobson, Abbie Geurkink, Hanna Zevenbergen, Lindsey Bundgaard, Jordyn Iverson, Hailey DeMotts, Sydney Dumond, and Alayna Shaw.
The coaches Kirstin Thompson, Jennifer Smith, and Roxi Wakeen would like to thank the Viking faculty who were so supportive by giving us listening audiences during advisory and special thanks to Sue Zwald, Kelli Larson, Kate Jennings, Debby Walters and Colleen Leavitt for help with judging.
