The Real State Tournament is coming up, and the coaches would like to make a run at the highest placement in both Speech and Debate as possible. Given this, we are asking some people to do some events they haven't competed in for a while or done yet . To those people (especially freshmen), you need to get to work and find topics for Oratories or pieces for interp events. To upperclassmen, remember this is only tentative. Both coaches are looking at every option available to do the best we can at this tournament. The dates are March 6th (Thursday) through March 8th (Saturday). Speech runs Thursday and Friday, and Debate runs Friday and Saturday. The cost will be $30 dollars per night and an additional $50 if we have to charter a bus. The tentative entry is below.
