    For those of you curios as to why Washington debater PDVE didn’t clear… Sam Kleiner beat him in round 6 - that’s a pretty intense prelim round.

    actually- as rebecca pointed out, peter (and i think the same applies for me) could’ve up picked up our last round, gone 5-1, and still not cleared on speaks. 95 debaters to a quarters break is really tough :(
