The Butler Bears Varsity Scholar Bowl team traveled to Rockhurst High School on Saturday, November 7th, to compete in the Rockhurst Invitational Fall Tournament. The team finished with an overall record of 6-2, picking up wins against opponents including St. Pius X, Staley, Cole Camp, Center, and Marceline. Our only two losses came against Oak Park and Lee’s Summit, who went on to win the tournament.
Congratulations to Easton Woolace, who earned a spot on the All-Tournament Team! He finished 4th in the individual player rankings with an average of 79 points per game, 7 powers, and 29 toss-ups during the preliminary rounds.
Great work by the whole team! Easton Woolace, Kole Plunkett, Isabel Branson, and Dravyn Scrogham each played a part in a successful day of competition.
