Andrew Salij began his quiz bowl career as a freshman at his local public school Riverside Brookfield. There, he played on the Junior Varsity team, being the second scorer behind the local legend [[Chris Olszewski]]. During his time at RB, Salij did not play much quiz bowl, though, as his team only attended Illinois [[Masonic]], [[IHSA]], and [[NAQT]] events, and as a freshman Salij was not to participate in the former two. Still, Salij's freshman year instilled a passion for quiz bowl, as Salij gained newfound confidence in his skills as he played as a history specialist.

Going into sophomore year, Andrew Salij transferred to the selective public school IMSA. At IMSA, he learned what [[good quizbowl]] was, for until then he has previously only played in a semi-competitive district. At the first practice, Salij became exposed to quiz bowl giants such as [[Saieesh Rao]], [[Anton Karpovich]], and [[Siva Gangavarapu]]. He was awe-struck by their prowess, and from that point on he swore to become good.
