“The teamwork, fast-paced game play, and opportunity to compete were always really compelling to me,” Austin Judd said.
Recent club trivia night hosted by Astronomy Teacher Austin Judd and History Teacher Hailey Hunt. The Quiz Bowl is a way for students, teachers and parents to come together and have fun doing trivia and winning prizes as a way to support the school and chosen organizations.
“Trivia Night is about showcasing the kinds of knowledge our students in Science and Quiz Bowl have to be able to demonstrate for our competitions,” Hunt said.
Quiz bowl is an ongoing club that has been around since 2016. Mr. Judd is the main sponsor for this after school event and he’s been doing it since it started.
“I’ve sponsored Science Bowl since 2016 because I participated in Quiz Bowl as a high school student myself and really enjoyed it.” Judd said.
The trivia night is a way for the Science/Quiz bowl to practice their skills and be prepared for competition. Their goal for this year is to compete in the Booz Allen Regional Competition in March.
“My goals for this club are to make it to competition at least once this year and get to participate as a team,” Hunt said.
Trivia night meets every Tuesday after school in room F249 to practice for their regional competition. Their first meeting was a fun and successful night where the President and Vice President presented ideas to help achieve the clubs main goals and passions for the year.
“Win or lose, I think the spirit of competition is healthy and inspires us to continue making ourselves better and stronger.” Hunt said.

I like how the story starts with a strong quote and talks about how teamwork is “compelling”. I also really like how it talks about how Mr. Judd was in it and the history of it briefly. I love the kicker quote and how inspirational it is.
