It was written that:

on the quiz circuit.
Without further
qualifiers this statement is incorrect. Maryland's Terrapin
Invitational Tournament has been held continuously since at
least 1988. The Southeastern Invitational has been run
in various guises (usually at Berry) for more than
20 years.
I suppose the sentence could be
interpreted as saying the Terrier Tussle is the
longest-running tournament held in February. Although I can't
disagree with such a claim, I do think it's a little
silly.
