congrats first to Sonia, I love you soo much and am so happy for you (and you said you weren’t going to clear). I’m really sorry that we had to close in quarters but thanks for everything, especially the whole teaching me how to debate thing, I owe it all (or at least most of it) to you. Also congrats to Micki, you’re phenomenal and deserved to bid, its a shame you and zach had to hit in the bid round. Congrats to Garth for dubz, sorry that this is your second tournament in a row where someone has closed you. Congrats to Jeff on octas of JV. Zach and Deepa, congrats on the bids you guys deserve them, Ardy congrats on the bid round, we’re all starting to suck less. Finally congrats to Zayn for dubz,

anywayS (plurality reverses evil singularity?), congrats to alan for pwning, steph for pwning harder, angie for pwning even harder, and greg hertz (high frequency gh) for pwning harder than anyone else at the tournament.

First off, deserved congratulations are in order to the whole Scarsdale crew, as well as the Lex Machine (thought you were dead on Friday) and Millburn (the spirit of Rauch lives on in you, McNulty…Greg you’re not bad, and of course, congrats to Peter Petraro).
Special attention is in order for one Harker DR (jazz hands!), as well as JZ, and the entire Hogan/Mangus/Oyer lab. I’d like to note that Kendra Oyer had six students in the bid round or better, not including the Cmetz/Valley MA dominantion.

finals was 7-0, but not so good really overall. but,the round was really more balnced than the deision refletcts. pretty sure the panel was amazing - had multiple former winnerss (beth o’connor also won?), i think. yale’s parli kids seem to get better and better at ld.

I “was there” too- I thought the final round was pretty good.
thanks a lot to Jed and the rest of the Yale tab- the judging was much better than any past year.
also, thanks to my teammate jake mcnulty for all of the hard work that we did and the inspiration that he brought out (even if petraro tried to set the world record for consecutive hours awake)

angie just wants to talk about AIDS!
in all seriousness I think that she lost most of the NC hurt her chances of winning on that drop about oppressing minorities on the 2nd contention

I encourage others to also post their barely intelligble one-sentence mini-decisions on the round. My next RFD is going to be “you lost a bunch of unnamed arguments, so you couldn’t win these others.” Sounds fair to me.
I want to thank Jed and everyone else who ran the tournament. I’ve been to Yale 8 years in a row now (which is really pathetic), and the last few years have had consistently outstanding judging pools and panels in all outrounds. I think everyone in tab (as well as people like Jed who actively recruit exceptional judges) work really hard to make that happen, so they should be acknowleged.
There were a lot of competitors who really impressed me this weekend, which was cool especially given the conflicts with Greenhill and Wake. In particular, I think Jason, Sonia, and Micki from Lex are going to do really well this year. I think that Ardevan is better at debate than at FIFA. Also, the coaching and team structure of schools like Hockaday and Scarsdale should probably be models for a lot of other schools, because there’s no way that they can just continue to consistently produce that many good debaters every year simply by like skewed geographical distribution of debate talent.
Finally, I want to congratulate Greg for his amazing performance this weekend. 26 out of 27 ballots is pretty intense, and Greg deserves the win for his hard work, for his ability to identify what he needs to improve on and solve it, and for his ability to step up his game when it matters most. I’m clearly biased, but I expect continued good showings from Greg and Jake this year.

While I am so very thankful to no longer be trying to take pictures of prelim schems on my fuzzy camera (please excuse if some of the picz from this weekend are blurry), I just wanted to say this was a great tournament all around — and I would expect nothing less from Jed, Jeff, and YDA. I was really impressed by the quality of the tournament last year, and even moreso this year. Thank you all! I know my whole team had a great time.
To second what Peter said, I saw some fantastic debating this weekend all through the tournament. In particular and especially, Tim DeSanta from Regis and Sonia Sujanani from Lexington were absolutely superb when I judged them in terms of decision calculus. Also, Zach Aberman and Angie Hermes (who I had the privilege of judging 3 times this weekend) made really interesting and unique arguments that I really appreciated. And it goes without saying that Mr. Hertz, as always, was great!
Of course, I couldn’t possibly fail to mention how proud I am of Team Walt Whitman. Even more than your spectacular showing — which was fantastic to me given how young we are — you really emphasized to me why we all coach. Your a phenomenal team, you work hard, and I’m so thankful to coach you all. I bet a lot of coaches at Yale this weekend feel the same way about their team. Great tournament!

p.s. And how could I possibly forget to especially congratulate Steph Carvais on her first bid! I told her two summers ago she would be a really amazing debater, and I was right.

September 18th, 2006 06:59
Angie Hermes is undoubtedly the most attractive debater this year. I expect big things to come from her!
See you at the TOC Angie!!!!

Congrats to Manchester for making it to the finals - you guys were one of the best teams we have ever faced and the final round was excellect! By the way, this site needs to be fixed in terms of the final round results for PF and the fact that Ross’s and my coach is Sam Weitzner, not Lewis or Keyes.
