The High School Quiz Bowl team from Holy Trinity Classical Christian School took first place at the SCISA State Championship on Tuesday, Oct. 30. Nine regional champion SCISA member-schools squared off for a rousing, single-elimination, four-person team competition of knowledge and skill.

The Holy Trinity team, comprised of 10th and 11th graders, not only competed with older teams from larger schools, but managed to win the whole competition without losing a single round.

At the completion of the all-day competition, SCISA Executive Director Dr. Spencer Jordan awarded the state championship to the Holy Trinity team comprised of Sarah Lawrence (captain), Caroline O'Neal, Sydney Lawrence, Parker Smith, Morgan Chumney, Caroline Mickel, and Matthew Gilbert.
