Ionia Post Game

In the days before the meet, it looked as if we would have three chambers, but we only needed two. City took 8 students: Christina Le, Catherine Khuu, Riet Groenleer, Nate Ritsema, Emily Riippa, Abe Rinck, and Evan Vanderhoff . Three highlights set the tone for the day.

Highlight No. 1: Our POs.
A lot of the students were still fairly new, so that meant more opportunities for City High students to step up, and they did.

Congratulations to our three POs:
  • Reggie Pell, first time!!
  • Christina Le, and
  • Nate Ritsema -- PO in both the regular session and in the Super Session.
Highlight No. 2: Super Session
Every student had the chance to participate in the Super Session -- this was a first for City. Congratulations!

Highlight No. 3: Awards.
City High students not only left with gavels in hand, but with awards. Four students received awards based on their performance in the Super Session:
  • Christina Le -- First
  • Abe Rinck -- Second
  • Nate Ritsema -- Third
  • Emily Riippa -- Ninth
Congratulations!
