The Missouri Academic Coaches Association (MACA) would like to announce that the annual Missouri State Junior Varsity Quiz Bowl Tournament will be held on the campus of Helias High School on Saturday, April 10, 2010. This is a new central location and Helias has graciously agreed to host the tournament. MACA hopes that this will allow many more schools to compete especially those from the eastern side of the state since travel times will no longer be so long or require an overnight trip.
Each winner of MSHSAA District tournaments on April 17 will advance to play a best two-of-three sectional against the winner from a neighboring district to determine who advances to the state championships on May 7 (Classes 1 & 2) and May 8 (Classes 3 & 4).
Class 1 & 2 sectional winners will advance to the MSHSAA State Championships, which will be held Friday, May 7 on the campus of the University of Missouri in Columbia.
Class 3 & 4 sectional winners will advance to the MSHSAA State Championships, which will be held Saturday, May 8 on the campus of the University of Missouri in Columbia.

combination.

Lexington High School will host its annual varsity academic tournament on Saturday, March 26, 2011. If sufficient teams enter, the field will be divided into two divisions. The top four finishers in each division will receive trophies, and members of champion teams will receive medals. All-Tournament teams for both divisions will be named, and those players will receive medals. We will use Missouri format, and NAQT -- the district and state provider -- will supply the questions. The tournament will also serve as a NAQT national championship qualifying tournament.
