The Missouri Scholars Academy is a summer program for gifted rising high school juniors founded to stimulate intellectual development. One feature of MSA life is the Scholar Bowl tournament, a quizbowl event in which members of the various houses at MSA compete for a student championship. The top student team then competes against staff, faculty and RAs.
In 2010, Olympia Academic Competition Questions wrote the questions for the entirety of the tournament. Olympia hopes to do so in the future as well.
