We are happy to report that Andrea Durham and Terra Strong did an excellent job representing Tennessee State University at this highly competitive National Championship. Although the two of them only had 7 of the 1,524 event slots at the tournament, they earned 87.5 points for TSU - breaking down to an earned 12.5 points per event! Also, these points placed TSU 21st in Team Sweepstakes out of the 84 schools attending. Here's a full list of individual events won: <br /><p></p><br /><p>- <strong>Second Place, Program of Oral Interpretation</strong> - Terra Strong</p><br /><p>- <strong>Third Place, Poetry Interpretation</strong> - Terra Strong</p><br /><p>- <strong>Sixth Place, Dramatic Interpretation</strong> - Terra Strong</p><br /><p>- <strong>Semi-Finalist, Dramatic Interpretation</strong> - Andrea Durham</p><br /><p></p>The full results from the tournament can be viewed/downloaded <a href="http://www.mnsu.edu/cmst/niet/Results2011/NIETResults2011.htm">here</a>. We are so proud of Terra and Andrea for their three finals and one semi-final - this is a really impressive finish for any team, especially one with only two students! Also, we should mention that the AFA-NIET committee and the folks at the University of Nebraska, Kearney were excellent hosts. Although Kearney may not be our first choice for a vacation destination, the hospitality and well-run tournament made the trip truly enjoyable. Here are a few pictures from the event - I promise to be a more active photographer next tournament! <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594446362657698338" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg73bD2ssryYkN3sq336jQofagr_IwDX-_LWEgoRkRuRIoMH2v3H7JZGe9htEPrc175d6IEQgL-fBhtIxyGygbSUeP939tUlcXQwJzRq8sK-VX89oTlV41VhpHxVHfUlV__S_YzA8A6IoHl/s400/219541_854051587022_41117178_41458276_2635683_o.JPG" /> Quarterfinal postings for Dramatic Interpretation - Terra and Andrea are near the bottom left. <br /><p></p><br /><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594451843593103314" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKSRvtKcsRmzuYKagb8_v857cLHe20PIhJvvI_E_70LEWdvkq03_D2PyY9Y0vLdR9pE-fSlIzmv9A_vSMc0N7USERDbFUHyuYtdMm4sLydsxtiomJUzAYceH_TfNKIUCkEM4ItLkzG6JgQ/s400/100_1887.JPG" />Terra receiving her award for Third Place in Poetry Interpretation from Tournament Director Larry Schnoor. </p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594446671727428242" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp8Plm52771v0BreMzIhcn7OPUHmYr5pestAoddxdQ3qACXSZ32Pr_YaiBRo7fN601v3p4NxJRsU1PLNGVhYECuJG_ZkvxhuZzkQS28E_aAiLrhCsZnk3jEG3yrnUDfcZGmr29UHECY662/s400/100_1891.JPG" /> Terra and Andrea looking lovely with their awards.

We hosted 12 universities on our campus the weekend of September 17-19, and when I get some pictures of the event, I will be sure to post them!</div><div><br /></div><div>Also, we made our first out-of-state trip last weekend (October 1-2) to Illinois State University. We won some awards, had a great time, and were able to bring a novice competitor to her first forensics tournament ever. </div><div><br /></div><div>Late last night we returned from the University of Alabama where we had an excellent showing, winning 23 total awards. Some highlights include taking Third Place as a Team at both halves of the tournament (out of 16 universities from across the nation), and Third place overall for the weekend; breaking all of our Duo Interpretation entries, and winning First, Second and Third in the event for the second half of the tournament; breaking every varsity team member into an elimination round; having two competitors win quadrathon (or overall speaker) awards.

The event was a huge success and a really great time as well. There are so many people to thank for supporting Tennessee State University Forensics and helping make the event possible. I can't quite thank everyone here, but I must mention our chair, <a href="http://www.roscoeorman.com/">Roscoe Orman</a> and our hosts Dr. T.B. and Mrs. Yvette Boyd. Their energy and time were imperative to the success of this event, and without them, it could not have happened.<div><br /></div><div>Thanks to all who attended, and a very special thank you to everyone who worked to put the event together through planning, silent auction item donation, or reading in our 'literature haven'. Because of your support, the students on our team will be afforded greater travel opportunities this year.</div><div><br /></div><div>Now, on to some pictures!</div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSes6PtgQ42xZRSLIpBM-RcWQw0pRtKTDSXHj-s3dPJO4niMV7R_Dl7MqzUZdMkkEyajbjHRtWxQasfSzS142BbMYc09T-gHecD_hiIsrxQ6SGMpsB7XnTTZfnLV0sJSR7ay8pJPvdBtGB/s1600/ToasttotheTeam+101.jpg"><br /></a></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAiG70VKtil_bAB2w0_672h29hSwI2amwerO2o9vELgT2kYlJ9gH72rv2RPhAyff0poXKH-xgukpwBkqW7KXiG1OxO2qHlRuGKrxohJobtijec_LwvngGqYEQjrWWK8jBkZD_jRCDsZXvy/s1600/ToasttotheTeam+097.jpg"><img style="display:block;

The team will be spending the next couple of weeks preparing for the American Forensics Association National Individual Events Tournament at the University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire. In the meantime, I want to share some pictures taken at our sit-in presentation last month. The photos were taken by Latrisha Jemison, the Senior Vice President/Regional Community Affairs Manager at Regions Financial, and a supporter of TSU forensics.

The event was held at Bethlehem Center in Nashville, and was sponsored by Regions Bank. Students of all ages, and a variety of adults - including two men who had participated the sit-ins - were in attendance. The sit-ins were an important factor in the desegregation of Nashville. Not only is this February Black History Month, but it is also the 50th anniversary of the sit-ins.

Year ChampionshipsSix team members traveled to the Mid Year Championships (called Hell Froze Over) January 14-18 at the University of Texas, Austin. There were 40 schools in attendance, and the competition was definitely fierce! We are happy to report winning four awards including Sophomore Terra Strong's Fourth Place in Poetry Interpretation during the second half of the tournament. Terra also advanced to semi-final rounds in Program of Oral Interpretation on day two of the tournament and Poetry Interpretation on day one. Junior Maximilian Cole advanced to the semi-final round of Poetry Interpretation on the first day of competition.Coach Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01794246101254377532noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3324788943995751099.post-67830853174888155182009-12-10T16:41:00.000-06:002010-02-09T17:33:05.167-06:00Ohio Holiday FrolicThe TSU Forensics Team finished fall semester at the Ohio State University Holiday Frolic held December 4-5, 2009.
