The made it to the championship!!!

I have been following Leah and her quizzing tournament this weekend very closely. I think there are 7 local teams here in the West Liberty area and Leah's team came in 3rd out of the 7. So not bad, but I was curious to see how they would do in a tournament of 77 teams. They lost their placement game, but then kept winning. Today is the championship game and they are in it!!!! Since they lost once, they had to play the other team twice to win the whole tournament. As of right now, they won their first game against the other team and they are playing the championship game as we speak. I have been face-timing with Ryan's iphone and believe it or not we lost the connection at 75-65, our lead and 1 more question. Ryan just called and we lost by 5. The other team got the last question, which would tie it, but they got a team bonus of "5." How disappointing to be so close..... They did great though! 2nd place is AMAZING!!!! Way to go!! Julie
