Lynbrook Zia Syed and Christine Fujiki
Lynbrook Jonathan Uesato and Eric Xu
Los Gatos Anderson and Hua
? Agrawal and Zhang

Resolutions:
1. Elena Kagan is the wrong choice for the Supreme Court.
2. The state of CA should enact a policy to decrease high school dropout rates.
3. Individuals have a moral obligation to not eat meat.
Thanks for the heads up, IDEA’s tourney article is up on POI now. The topic was apparently “In some cases, juveniles should be tried as adults.” for the entire tournament.
It’s safe to assume that it will be at least two weeks after the last state qualifier and won’t run against CHSSA, but I don’t know the exact dates yet. I plan to release the invite at around October.
Any chance of getting the Claremont HS tournament included in your qualifying list? The 4th annual Claremont Invitational is scheduled for Jan. 8-9. We run both novice and varsity divisions in parli and last year had over 30 teams in each division representing 14 different schools.
We’ll definitely include Claremont (assuming we get the results packet). It wasn’t on the calendar originally because I didn’t know the date, but I’ll add it in right now. Thanks for the info.

Los Gatos – Olivia Flechsig and Adam Silverman!
I’m assuming Agrawal/Zhang are Saratoga ZA, the SCU2 runners-up?
I heard that Bentley McKenna-Brog LOST to Burnaby Mountain School from British Columbia in Canada at the ITOCs at Willamette in the final round.
Second place in the world isn’t bad, but they won last year.
Does anyone know what they debated or why they lost?

Any preliminary dates yet for a repeat of the California Cup in 2011? Just curious…
