The Forensics team took third place at the Blue Valley Northwest competition on Saturday, Feb. 16. The following students placed in different categories including:

Impromptu: sophomore Henry Hansen, 5^th place

Original Oration: senior Lexi Riddle, 5^th place

Informative Speaking: Riddle, 6^th place

Poetry: freshman Karla Kim, 5^th place

Prose: junior Madison Plouvier, 1^st place

Serious Solo Acting: Plouvier, 3^rd place

Humorous Solo Acting: senior Stephen McEnery, 3^rd place

Duet Acting: junior Victoria Kilkenny and senior Alex Maupin, 2^nd place

McEnery enjoyed the competition because he got to perform his Humorous Solo Acting piece called Kulula Airlines.

“I like how [the piece] is mostly memorization but I make up parts as I go,” McEnery said. “I’m a terrible actor but it’s fun to just go up and be funny.”

According to McEnery, the competition was busy, but well worth it.

“I was entered into four separate events so it was crazy but kind of different,” McEnery said. “[Forensics] is different than anything I’ve done in high school and it’s really fun.”
