3rd place medal with hearts and pink emblazon that reads Fairview Fling Informative Speaking 3rd Place

The local informative speaking circuit is stacked. We have the person who got 3rd at Nats last year. My Kid has been raking. Zhe has a teammate w/ 2 wins.

But the Kid got the “1” in a prelim round with 3rd-at-Nats and took 3rd in the entire tournament.
