Outstanding Performance at the California State Debate Tournament!!

By Speech & Debate • April 28, 2010

Congratulations to the SDA’s Mustang Speech and Debate team and coach, Mr. Todd Newkirk. A great time was had by all as Derrik Marow and Michael Wimsatt advanced to the fourth round of Policy, going 2-2 over the weekend. Marc Lococo placed just shy of the semifinals in Impromptu on a tiebreaker based on the three preliminary rounds.

Schools in our league also performed well. La Costa Canyon’s, Reza Zomorodian and Brian Castello progressed to the semifinals in Parlimentary Debate. Brian won 4th overall in the Original Oratory event. Also, Helix Charter High’s Public Forum team of Brown and Chertkov won second place overall!

Congratulation to all our outstanding students.

Our heartfelt thanks to Mr. Newkirk for his tremendous dedication throughout the year. Thank you, parents and friends, for your continued support!

Stay tuned for the National Tournament news and upcoming parent coordination events for 2011-2012…
