Quiz Bowl Team Qualifies for National Tournament

Congratulations to the MBS Quiz Bowl team for qualifying for the NAQT (National Academic Quiz Tournaments) Small School National Championship, which will be held from April 24-26 in Illinois.

The Morristown-Beard School team was invited after finishing 7th at the regional tournament that it hosted on November 10th— the team’s best-ever finish! The MBS fall tournament included more than 150 competitors on 32 teams from 17 schools in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware.  

MBS will now have an opportunity to compete against other high-caliber teams from similarly sized schools from all over the country. In the national tournament, there is no limit on roster size, and players can be substituted at the end of a half, at timeouts or between games.  For more information about the NAQT Small School National Championship, please click here.

The MBS Quiz Bowl team is led by junior Tim Schietroma ’21, who has been active with the club since his freshman year.  Upper School English teacher Andrew Holbrook serves as the club’s advisor.
