'''Edmond Memorial''' is a public high school in Edmond, Oklahoma whose quizbowl program was started in 1988 by former coach Tina Page. Over the course of its more than thirty-year history, Edmond Memorial has been one of the most successful quizbowl teams in Oklahoma, claiming several titles in both the [[OSSAA state|OSSAA]] and [[NAQT Oklahoma State Championship|NAQT]] state championships. In its earlier years, Memorial also claimed national championships at the [[1995 TOC|1995]] and [[1996 TOC|1996]] ASCN [[Tournament of Champions]].
  
Memorial currently holds two fundraiser tournaments, the Bulldog OSSAA Invitational and Bulldog NAQT Invitational. Due to scheduling conflicts both tournaments will be held in the fall. In the past a fall tournament was held for all-comers in the ASCN format.
