Congratulations to Morrison High School’s Scholastic Bowl team on its victory in the IHSA Regional on Monday, March 4! Morrison won its matches against Freeport (Aquin), Milledgeville, and Pecatonica. The match against Pecatonica was especially close—Pecatonica was leading 300-290 after the 23rd question of the match. On the 24th question—the final question of the match—Nara Hardesty buzzed in with the correct answer, and Blaine Williams contributed the answers to the bonus questions to ensure a 330-300 win for Morrison. Monday’s victory is the Scholastic Bowl program’s first IHSA Regional win since the 2015-16 season, when the team was led by its former coach, Adam Smith.
