The Glacier High School speech and debate team captured its second consecutive win of the season in Missoula over the weekend.

Glacier took first place by racking up 207.5 overall points at the Garden City Regional tournament. Flathead finished second with 177.5 overall points.

Frenchtown edged Columbia Falls among Class ABC schools — 54.5 to 50 — followed by Whitefish with 30 points. Twenty teams from Western Montana competed in the tournament.

“I told the team to never take wins for granted,” Glacier Head Coach Greg Adkins said in a press release. “Winning a two-day AA tournament is never easy, and I'm very proud of the team's efforts. I'm so thrilled at the way our newcomers are competing and the growth that our returners are showing in the young season.”

Glacier was led with individual first-place finishes from Owen Carpenter and Atticus Cheman in Novice Policy Debate; Kevin Fortin in Novice Lincoln-Douglas Debate; Calvin Schmidt in Legislative Debate; Alexa Wilton in Memorized Public Address; and Lane McKoy in Informative Speaking.

Flathead’s individual first-place finishers included Scout McMahon in Extemporaneous Speaking and Impromptu Speaking; James Francis and Aiden Christy in Duo Interpretation; Aiden Christy in Humorous Interpretation; and Ryan Tiet in Dramatic Interpretation.

On Nov. 20, Columbia Falls High School will host a Class A invitational and is looking for volunteer judges. Prior experience isn’t necessary. To sign up as a judge contact Ally Reamy at a_reamy@cfmtschools.net or Dawn Roe at d_roe@cfmtschools.net.
