We've had a tournament each of the last two weekends.Last weekend we quizzed in our monthly Indiana tourney. 6 Junior teams, including our two. We did a round robin so each team quizzed 5 quizzes. Our team lost to the other Calvary team, but then had a chance to win the tourney in the last quiz against undefeated Toledo, OH. We were ahead 90 to -5 after question 8. But Toledo's ace quizzer got 6 of the last 7 questions to beat us. Hannah ended up the second highest individual, answering 16 questions with 4 misses.
Yesterday we went to Louisville for a tournament. There were 7 teams including our two. Toledo showed up again. We won our first quiz handily, then lost again to our other Calvary team. In the loser's bracket we had a lousy quiz, trailing a team from Madisonville 55 to 10 with three questions to go. They missed #13 to make it 40 to 10, and Hannah's teammate got #14 to tie it. Then Hannah nailed a two-part cross reference question on #15 for the win. In our next quiz we had a back-and-forth quiz with Radcliffe. Trailing by 10, Hannah got #14 to quiz out and seal the win. We then ran up against our other Calvary team again, and once again got beat. As the weekend before, the final placings were Toledo, Calvary 1, Calvary 2 and Hannah was again the second highest individual behind the ace from Toledo, answering 21 right and missing only 4.
For those of you not so good at math, Hannah had 37 correct and only missed 8 in two tournaments! We continue to be proud of her success, but even more proud of her dedication to memorizing God's word!
