Yeah, I remember Urbana doing well in TRASH when I played the tourneys at Tipp. They should be a safe bet to make the top four, along with St. Chucks.
Chillicothe, I believe, finished fourth last year and is attending again, so they should be a darkhorse.
I don't think F.C. has ever won TRASH @ Tippecanoe, but I'm pretty sure the Irish have been in the semi-finals multiple times as well as a finals appearance once. We generally did well in the morning portion, but we would get disposed of in the afternoon - often at the hands of St. Charles or Sam Blizzard + Northmont. I suppose it was ironic back when I played how poorly we did on questions relating to Catholicism in regular quiz bowl, but we always had three guys (including me, I guess) that could do well on sports, hip-hop, and stuff like that.
St. Charles is/was always really tough on the TV, movies, and internet/video games.
I wrote one of the packets that will be played tomorrow, so afterwards when all the mirrors are finished feel free to feed me your feedback.
