Claremont Colleges

The Claremont Colleges is a quizbowl team active in the Southern California circuit. While students from all seven Claremont University Consortium schools are eligible to play on the team, the majority of players have come from Claremont McKenna College, Harvey Mudd College, Keck Graduate Institute, and Pomona College.

Notable results

The Claremont Colleges won the 2012 NAQT West Sectional Championship Tournament (Division II). Claremont Colleges had previously finished in second place at the 2011 West SCT, thus qualifying for the NAQT Intercollegiate Championship Tournament (ICT) for the first time. A third Division II ICT appearance occurred as a result of a hosting autobid in 2015.

In 2014, the Claremont Colleges emerged victorious at the NAQT Southwest SCT, qualifying for Division I of the Intercollegiate Championship Tournament for the only time in its history.

A Claremont Colleges team won the 2016 UC Irvine Collegiate Novice Invitational.
