The Morris Scholastic Bowl Team is the IVC Conference East Division Champions!!!
On Wednesday April 9th, the Scholastic Bowl team went to Wilmington for the big IVC Conference tournament. After defeating Wilmington in the first round with a score of 270 to 150, our team moved on to the championship match against the #1 seed team, Channahon.
In the championship match, Channahon’s team put up a good fight, but it wasn’t enough. The Morris team led at halftime 150 to 80, and at the end of the match, the score was 290 to 190. Hao Wu, Trevor Mitoraj, Will Edler, Sebastian Braun, Rylan Zumwalt, Abby Vignali, and captain Parker Wills all deserve a big congratulations!
The Scholastic Bowl team will have some this week as they take on the teachers + other staff members!
GO BRAVES!!
