The debate team attended a tournament at Blue Valley West High School on Saturday, Sept. 28.

The team of seniors Alex Reeves and Lexi Riddle won three rounds and lost two. Reeves predicts that they were in the top 20 of the 32 schools there.

“We did really well, but we didn’t medal,” Reeves said.

However, in their previous debate on Saturday, Sept. 15, they came in first.

“[One of my goals for this season] is to get another gold medal,” Reeves said. “The varsity team is good, but we’re small.”

Debate teacher Jeanette Hardesty hopes to see the team do well throughout the year.

“I look forward to more wins as the season progresses,” Hardesty said.
