Congratulations to Ohio A (Clark, Hari, John John, and Sam) for their 3rd place finish at NASAT! Ohio A and Illinois A had a play-in game with the winner advancing on to a disadvantaged final against Virginia A, and Illinois won that 325-270. Illinois ended up winning both games of the final to win the tournament for the third year in a row.

Ohio B (William, Edward, Timmy, me) went undefeated in the tier 3 playoff rounds to finish 21st.

Thanks once again to Mr. Benedict for coaching!

This was an incredible field of teams and a very challenging question set, and our players acquitted themselves admirably. I want to thank the players and their families once again for everything they did to make this year’s NASAT effort run smoothly. Congratulations to Ohio A for equaling the state’s best NASAT finish (3rd), Clark Smith for winning the tournament’s top scoring award, and Ohio B for running the table in their playoff bracket (including thrilling wins over Nevada, Georgia, and Kentucky). Best of luck to our two NASAT seniors, Clark and Pranav, in their college endeavors on and off the buzzer. Everyone else, here’s to the 2018-19 high school season!
