Fourteen Enid High School speech and debate students went to regional competition this weekend at Rose State College in Midwest City.
The competition included Lincoln-Douglas debate, as well as individual events such as public speaking, extemporaneous speaking, poetry and prose readings and acting events.
Regional qualifiers include: Alan Tarin, in five events; Emily Payne and Savannah Whipple, both in three events; Jeanie LaFon, Michelle Locke, Katie Huse and Sean Allen, each in two events.
Other qualifiers include Elizabeth Lewis, Sara Loos, Lacey Whipple, Win Offill, Kayla Dearing, Chris Andrukaitis and Jessica Reeves.
The students are coached by Lisa Hamilton and Tana Germundson.
The EHS speech and debate team will enter regionals in the midst of a successful season.
They won a sweepstakes trophy at three of the four qualifying tournaments they attended. They earned first place at the Jenks High School tournament.
Students who qualify at regionals will then compete at state next month, hosted by the University of Oklahoma.
