SMS teams do well in Joplin quiz bowl match


The first Joplin quiz bowl match in two years was held Monday at Memorial Middle School.
Memorial's number two team won, though not before being taken to overtime by South's number one team, consisting of Kane McCaslin, Kylie Hurrell, Lainie Nicolas, and Savanah Sweeton.
South's number two team, led by Dylan Prauser, who answered 23 questions during the tournament, defeated the number one team. Other members of the number two team were Sarah Kessler and Alex Kangethe.
The SMS Quiz Bowl team will compete in a social studies tournament at Lamar in February.
