Seven teams attended the National Parliamentary Debate League's national tournament and had an awesome time arguing topics derived from both coasts! Even though it was online, the team bonded watching and discussing rounds while supporting each other. There was also the first walk-over of the season!

Six teams attended the CFL State Quals tournament at Palo Alto High School and had an awesome time! The team bonded over food at Zareen's, solved puzzles in the parli prep room, and supported the breaking team.
