Dennis Haskins Open High School QB 3/19/05: results, stats, gratitude


Congratulations to Berean Christian A and Paul L. Dunbar A, winners 
of the varsity and junior divisions (respectively) at the 2005 Dennis 
Haskins Open High School Quizbowl.  This was the 8th annual Haskins, 
held at UT-Chattanooga on March 19, 2005.  Speaking for myself, it 
was one of the most enjoyable tournaments I've ever run, with a great 
attitude all around and remarkably smooth operations despite the size 
(38 teams in 3 buildings.)  Full results follow below, but first...

Special thanks go to UTC's stats demigoddess and surrogate tournament 
director Nikki Poarch for an outstanding job handling logistics.  
Thanks also to Rachel Moore for shuttling questions and scoresheets 
between tournament HQ and the other two buildings.  Thanks go to the 
outstanding house reader corps we had, including Tom Michael, Dave 
Leach, Mark Dawson, Chris Hendry, Dren Rollins, Wes Eddings, and 
Scott Sanders; Northwest Shoals CC's Josh Clanton; Macon State's 
Steve Taylor, Travis Lightsey, and Brett Norris; and UTC's John 
Kilby, David Moore, Eric Fox, Ashley Rousselle, Jacob Vannucci, Jimmy 
Beilstein, and Zach Cross.  Thanks also to the coaches who read or at 
least offered to read: Ruth Jackson, Steve Sessis, Mike Taylor, Bob 
St. John, Kay Campbell, Robin Slack, Emmaly Fisher, and Ron Smith.  

Thanks also go to Jeffrey Hanson & co. from Case Western Reserve 
University, our principal collaborators in writing the questions, and 
to Jeremy Rasmussen et al. from the University of South Florida for 
swapping material from their college tournament that same weekend.  
We also had many freelance contributors lending a hand.  Thanks to 
Ray Luo et al. from Cal-Berkeley, Eric Smith et al. from Stanford, 
the aforementioned trio from Macon State, Mark Coen, Jason Carl 
Mueller, Raj Dhuwalia, Kelli Barone, Billy Beyer, Kelly Miskowski, 
Paul Bailey, Chuck Pearson, Jack Brounstein, Anthony Gisonda, Micha 
Elsner, John Solter, Chris Lin, Ray Anderson, Andrew Willey et al, 
from Rhodes, Anthony Napolitano, and anyone I may have omitted.  

As for the results: We had a total of 38 teams -- 24 in Division I 
and 14 in Division II (for players grades 7-10 only.)  The 24 Div. I 
teams were split into three brackets, Zack, A.C., and Screech.  
Similarly, the 14 Div. II teams were split into two brackets, Jessie 
and Kelly.  Results after the 7-round round robin were:
