Hastings High School is a public school located in Hastings-on-Hudson, a Westchester County suburb just north of New York City. The club has existed for several decades, mostly playing in the Questions Unlimited "Academic Challenge" leagues WACKO and MACC.

Valley Cup

On January 7th, 2023, the inaugural Valley Cup will be hosted at Hastings High School in collaboration with the Long Island Quiz Bowl Alliance. This is both a part of the shift towards more NAQT participation for the team, as well as an attempt to garner interest in NAQT-style pyramidality in the Hudson Valley. Link for more info
