There's a long shot chance that some player from the Tulane teams has contacted CBCI and registered with their Alumni database. You'd have to email them and ask them. Otherwise, I very much doubt there will be any player records for Tulane. Tulane played before ACU-I instituted the six-year eligibility rule. Prior to that rule, I don't think anyone saw a need to maintain player records. If scoresheets from non-televised or non-championship matches of the early RCT's and NCT's exist, I don't know who has them. The TV appearance was a big deal in the 60's. Two of the later NCT appearances involved trips to Miami. I would expect your student and local newspapers, which are probably available in your library, to have run a story or two - especially for the 60's team. You may have to look through every issue from February through April for news of the later teams. If you're lucky, someone has indexed them. Two other places to try include your university archives. These are usually located in the main library special collections. They will probably be most helpful for the television appearnce. Even losing schools got a small amount of money, and there will probably be some record of where that went, and perhaps which students won the money for the school. The money was from GE to the scholarship fund. Some universities also have an official "University Historian" who might know of records not stored in the archives location. The other place that may help is the alumni association. They can put a notice for information in the alumni magazine, which will almost certainly get you the information but take a while. If they have an alumni listserv that can spread the word, you might get the information much quicker. Your regional coordinator won't have anything. ACU-I RC's generally serve for a three-year maximum term, and often much shorter. They usually don't pass on to their successor anything but what is needed for the next year's tournament. There have been at least six RC's in your region since Tulane played, and almost certainly a few more. If your RC has any records more than a few years old, I will be astonished. Delighted to hear it, but astonished. Good luck! And if you stumble across any match records from those RCT's or NCT's in the process, please let me or CBCI know! Both of us will see that the information is preserved. Tom Speaking only for myself. --- In quizbowl_at_yahoogroups.com, scoobyhed <no_reply_at_y...> wrote: > collegebowl.com gives you a searchable archive of team results, but > do the good folks at CBI have a list of actual players?
