Trevor's Trivia/Selcer Memorial: full results, stats, gratitude

UT-Chattanooga hosted its eighth annual fall high school academic 
tournament, Trevor's Trivia: Bob Selcer Memorial High School 
Quizbowl, on Sat., Oct. 1.  Congratulations to Covenant Christian 
Academy and Brindlee Mtn. B, winners of the varsity and junior 
varsity divisions (respectively.)  Full results follow, but first...

GRATITUDE: Special thanks to James Washick of North Greenville 
College and Sudheer Potru et al. of Illinois for exchanging questions 
with us.  Thanks go to our house officials: Stephen Webb, Shae 
Reynolds, and Nick Bendler of Georgia Tech; Stephen Taylor, Brett 
Norris, Travis Lightsey, and Lucas Crawford of Macon State; Chuck 
Pearson of Shorter College; and UTC's own John Kilby, Eric Fox, Jacob 
Vannucci, Jimmy Beilstein, Vince Betro, Ruth Jackson, Zach Cross, and 
Yolanda Fernandez.  [Apologies if I left anyone out.] Thanks also to 
the high school coaches who read or at least offered to read when we 
needed.  And as always, thanks to John Miles and the folks at 
Provino's for providing incentive for our guest readers to come to 
town for the occasion.

RESULTS

We had a total of 21 teams, conveniently distributed with 14 in 
Division I and 7 in Division II.  Division I was split into two 
brackets, which each played a round robin of 7 rounds.  (Thanks go to 
Cocke Co. and Morristown West for agreeing to field second teams at 
the last minute, replacing two late cancellations and keeping the 
schedule simple.) This was followed by three rounds of modified Swiss 
pairings, with the top three teams from each bracket playing in a 
championship division.

VARSITY RESULTS: Standings for Division I after the round robin and 
before the Swiss pairings were:

It's worthy of mention that the 2nd place team, Brindlee Mtn. A, 
chose to compete in Division I even though all its players were 
eligible for JV.

By virtue of a head-to-head sweep over the other two upper division 
teams with the same record, Bob Jones A was awarded 4th place.
