River Valley Speech kicks off season

The River Valley Speech team kicked off their tournament season at the Worthington Trojan Tournament on Saturday, February 7, earning the  first-place team trophy out of seventeen teams competing. First-place champions included Springfield High School senior Taya Beyer in extemporaneous reading and the duo interpretation team of Springfield High School junior Leo Hovland and senior Lily Pingeon. In both great speeches and prose, competitors finished in an unbreakable tie for second place and therefore each received second-place points.
