What We Do

To get a feel for what we do, this may be helpful.

For those who are unable to read the pdf, College Bowl is a national activity that involves knowledge, a competitive desire, and quick reflexes. Matches are comprised of two teams of 4 players from opposing schools must answer tossups and bonus questions. It's most easily likened to "Team Jeopardy", although obviously there are different mechanics/strategies. There are three primary formats. A good overview of each primary format can be found here.
