A Strong Start: MDTA Jamboree Results

 

We kicked off the MSHSL debate season with the Minnesota Debate Teacher’s Association (MDTA) Jamboree this weekend! MNUDL teams joined hundreds of debaters from across Minnesota. The Jamboree is a more relaxed tournament, offering a demo debate and workshop to ease Novice debaters into the season.

As always, students had the chance to earn team awards (based on the win/loss record) and speaker awards (based on the judges’ assessment of their individual speaking skills). We’re proud to say that MNUDL students brought home 19 top-5 awards!
