White Plains High School is, surprisingly, a high school located in White Plains, New York. The town is the county seat of Westchester County, and appropriately the school is the center of the massive QU-dominated quiz bowl scene there. The coach of the White Plains team, Les Roby, is one of the strongest Chip supporters and quite possibly the longest-serving quiz bowl coach in the US. The team had its most success in 1990, when its team placed second in the NAC. It is perennially the host of the Omar Q. Beckins tournament, which fielded over 60 teams in 2010, as well as a regular season tournament series called "WACKO".
