The road ended today for Adiel, as he did not advance to finals. Still, it is an amazing finish for Adiel as he wraps up his Speech & Debate career at Spring Hill High School!

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

Further: We think that Adiel is the only Kansan remaining in both House and Senate in the @speechanddebate National Tournament! #SpringHillProud

Spring Hill's Adiel Garcia this week:
✅ Attend Congress at NSDA Nationals
✅ Break to quarterfinals
And now ...
✅ Break to SEMIFINALS

Adiel's run continues Thursday!

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

They say if it ain't broke, don't fix it. But if someone does break ... celebrate! Congratulations to Adiel Garcia, who advances to the Quarterfinal round of Congressional House!

Our four Nationals competitors are rocking and rolling in Des Moines! Good luck today to Trystan (DI), Kailey & Max (PF), and Adiel (House) in competition today! #GoSpringHill

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

Your Broncos have made it to Des Moines! A fun-filled day of obtaining Cornelius (the mascot) ... and some mini-golf at Blank Park (By the way — Mr. Kunkle was the mini-golf champ!). Competition starts tomorrow!

And that's a wrap from Chicago! Thanks to all who supported us at the NCFL Grand National Tournament! It was a great weekend in Chicago and our student had a blast! For Jackson, his year ends, but for the other four — there's one tournament left in the @speechanddebate tourney!

Coming home with some hardware. #SpringHillsFinalist #Winning

Two days. Three gavels. Adiel cooks in Congress.

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

STOP THE PRESSES!!!
Adiel is in the NATIONAL FINALS at the NCFL Grand National Tournament in Student Congress! Another session awaits him! @SHHS_Broncos

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

The waiting game begins! Adiel completes the semifinals round of Congress — earns another gavel — and is now awaiting word for whether he is going to finals!

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

Happy Sunday from Chicago! Adiel starts the day with more Congress rounds — semifinals this morning!

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

Our last spotlight tonight is Adiel Garcia. All said and done, Adiel has gone to six state tournaments and six national tournaments. He's been a NSDA semifinalist in Congress, and is now a TWO-TIME semifinalist in NCFL Congress! The show continues tomorrow! #SHProud

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

Next in our spotlight is sophomore Kailey Howell and senior Max Pacheco! They dove into PF last year and qualified for NSDA Nationals — and are in both NCFL and NSDA Nationals this year! Max has been an accomplished member of our squad, and Kailey is quickly becoming a star!

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

Next up in our spotlight is one of our two sophomores, Trystan Wood! Trystan is a two-time state qualifier and a first-time national qualifier. He specializes in acting events — mainly DI and HI. This weekend, Trystan is competing in Dramatic Performance! #SHProud

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

As we go through the weekend, we will spotlight our competitors in Nationals! First up is Jackson Roberts, competing in Congress! Jackson is a freshman who also does Policy, Extemp and Informational. He's passionate about WW2 history and has a bright future ahead of him! #SHProud

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

Our five participants are all ready to go in Chicago! Max, Kailey, Jackson, Adiel and Trystan all started R1 by 8 a.m.! Let's hope there's lots of rounds ahead of them today!

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

Spring Hill is in Chicago! The @SHHS_Broncos Forensics Team is representing the Broncos in the NCFL Grand National Tournament. Today was filled with a @Amtrak train ride, some delicious pizza, and many laughs. Tomorrow? Plenty of competition!

[SHHS Speech & Debate @SHHSSpeech]

It's NCFL week! Stay tuned as Spring Hill's Forensics group heads to Chicago to shine on the national stage. But first ... congratulations to Trystan Wood, who has been bumped up to also compete in the @speechanddebate tournament in Des Moines! Go Trystan!
