Scholastic Bowl By Alyssa Rodriguez

After many matches, the varsity Scholastic Bowl team finally ended their season. Their season consisted around 13 meets and the junior varsity had about that many too. These matches consisted of facing teams such as Prairie Central, Seneca, and Roanoke-Benson. The final match was for the varsity team on March 9th. While the Pontiac Indians fought hard, they fell short in their effort. Overall the season was pleasant and was pretty successful. Even though next year there is a chance to go farther, the seniors will be missed. These students include Caitlyn Cotter, Aaron Putnam, Hannah Wallace, and Robert Young. These individuals were great leaders for both teams in encouragement and motivation which both teams were thankful for. Next year, both teams will be ready for the challenge and will be itching to participate in buzzer beaters for another season of Scholastic Bowl.
