District Finals
On April 30th and May 1st the Northeastern District had a wonderful time of fellowship and competition at our District quiz finals hosted by Westfield Baptist Church in Westfield, NY. Friday night was a great time of fellowhip and fun, just enjoying time spent together by Lake Erie. On Saturday morning the competition commenced and it was a great day of quizzing. All of the quizzers did an excellent job and the quizzing was very competitive. At the end of the day only 5 quizzers could go on and represent our District at Internationals, but there were many that were more than qualified. Nick Murgia, Nate Harp, Sam Benedict, Ellie Oliver and Caleb Benedict were the top 5 that will be representing our District this year. Congratulations to them and their coaches for all the hardwork they have put in all year long.

Internationals
The 5 young men who made the Northeastern District Team in April represented you well. They quizzed quite well in the preliminaries finishing 6th at that point and having had all 5 of the guys answering correctly at some point. They really worked as a team. On Saturday during the championship rounds, they did not fare quite as well quizzing wise, but still were model examples of how to handle success and defeat. The team finished 7th place overall and Nate Kitchen finished in 4th place individually with Nate Harp finishing in 19th place individually and narrowly missing receiving the rookie of the year award.
If anyone is interested, you can look at more stats on www.biblequizstats.org
Next year's International competition will be held July 20th-25th in Calgary. Anyone who is planning on trying to make the team will need to have their passport by district finals in May.
