The speech team with their conference champion trophy! |
LOOKS GOOD! |
After a terrific night of speeches and performances tonight in Eden Valley, the B-B-E speech team is back on top of the Central Minnesota Conference! First place and another trophy in the high school trophy case!
Icing on the cake is having 7 team members taking first place in their events. GREAT JOB! As I've said repeatedly here, hard work indeed pays off!

And other placewinners!
3rd place = Isaiah Mitchell, Creative; Austin Meyer, Drama; Tyler Bents/Abe Peter, Duo; Alex Schramel, Ex. Reading; Nick Steinhofer, Ex. Speaking; Ashlyn Jenc, Informative; Jessica Raveling, Prose; Molly Tengwall, Storytelling.

Back in the 2006 season, the B-B-E speech team emerged as CMC champions for the first time in school history. Since then they were also CMC champions in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2012. This year is the 6th time they've become CMC champs! Woo hoo!
Up next: the B-B-E speech team travels to Cambridge this Saturday (3/22) for the final regular season meet. Then they set their sights on the Sub-Section 5A-19 meet next Friday, March 29 at Paynesville high school. They took second place last year and have every intention on going in at full steam and taking the championship! It'll be exciting to see how things turn out.
