Heard and Hampton finished first in
the regional tournament and were the
only undefeated team. They received a
superior rating which qualified them
for the national tournament.
"Having freshmen win the regional
tournament was unusal but both com-
peted in high school and made the
transition to college debating without
any problems" said Cardot.
Ritchie and Prickett did not compete
in the regional tournament because of
a death in Prickett's family. They
qualified for the national tournament
before the regional competition was
conducted.
The team is ranked first in a five-
state region and second in a 12-state
region.
