McKay won Region Championship in PF debate!

As most of you know McKay has now been on the WXHS debate team for about 1 1/2 years. He took 5th in State last year in Congress and he had many other wins last year too. Well this year he deiced that he was going to try some new and he changed categories, which you normally do not do on the Debate team. You start the 3 years with one place and stay there. But not McKay. He wants to try and get a scholarship in Debate so he deiced to try and do PF = Pubic Forum. In PF you have a partner and you debate together. McKay's debate partner is a guy named Tuscan.

When they go on "stage" Tuscan write all the facts down and sets the case and McKay is the closer. They have met teams that have debated for almost 3 full years together and beat them. And like the title of this post stats they are Region Champions.

There were 6 schools and many PF teams and McKay and Tuscan beat them all. They are very "young" together and both Juniors. They competed at Varsity Level and many times are the underdog. But they did it, they took Region ;o) They were the best team from WXHS too!!

 The little coin says Region Champs in PF 2012. Way to go McKay and Tuscan!

Next week they are going to the National Qualifier to see if they can make it to Nationals. Here they are true young and the under dogs but you never know!!
