Team History
The Manheim Township Quiz Bowl team first began to emerge as a regional powerhouse under Anne Clouser, during which successful students such as Brad Rutter and Jeff Hoppes were members of the team. Some time after her retirement, Adrian Klopp became the coach and led the team to moderate success at NAC. Starting with the 2010-2011 season, Missy Doll and Chris Manning became the team's co-coaches. They won the local quiz-show Brainbusters in their 2011-2012 season, and in 2012-2013, encouraged their league to switch to NAQT questions from Questions Unlimited. They have stopped attending the NAC, and they made their first appearances at HSNCT and NSC in 2013. Manheim Township tied for 13th at the 2016 HSNCT.
