The UCA Quiz Bowl team recently placed third at the NAQT Southwest Sectionals held at the University of Tulsa.
The accomplishment was notable because it was the first tournament competition for the new team, which was formed this semester.
Tobin Williamson of Dardanelle made the All-Region team, and Jason Groves of Morrilton answered two questions in a 3-question overtime to defeat Kansas State University in the game to determine third place. Other schools UCA defeated on their way to third place included the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, Hendrix College (in overtime), and Harding University.
Other team members included Joshua Simmons of Magnolia, Patrick Kangrga of Little Rock, and Dean Turbeville of Nashville.
