Congratulations! State Finalists: Minneapolis South NC

Minneapolis South High School debaters, Clara C. & Annabelle N., finished their run at the MSHSL State Debate Tournament in the finals. On a 4-1 decision, Archan S. & Eric L. from Eagan High School were declared the State Champions.

Clara & Annabelle won 7 previous rounds of competition to advance to finals.

The partnership of Ezra G. & Molly R., also from Minneapolis South, were Quarterfinalists.

Two Saint Paul teams also advanced to Quarterfinals: Chikamso C. & Samuel S. from Como Park Senior High School, and Cayden M. & Maren L. from Central High School.

We also want to acknowledge the debaters who qualified to compete at State at Sections, some of whom were unable to compete due to COVID-19 related reasons:

State Qualifier students from Roseville, Roosevelt, St Paul, Como Park, Washburn, Central HS, and South

It hasn’t been an easy season, but our students handled the challenges with flexibility and determination. This year’s topic was water resources, and we know they learned a lot. Please send your congratulations to these schools for their accomplishments at State!
