Subject: Complete JV Harvard Results
Here are Complete JV Harvard Results. The Field was, if I remember
correctly, 252 people, and it broke to DOUBLE octos. Note that the JV
field was 3 less people than the varsity field, and half as many broke.
The cut was unbelieveably vicious. NO 4-2's broke. This, frankly is
ridiculous. People complained about this in the varsity field last year;
they should do the same for the JV field this year. With as many people
as there were, a cut to double octos was simply wrong. Well, with that
off my chest, here are results.
Double Octos
(1) Hopkins TP (Tom Pryor) def. (32) Shenendahowa JG (?)
(2) Holy Ghost DH (Dan Harley) def. (31) Fordham Prep SM (Sho Monmoto)
(3) Providence SM (Sarah Motley) def. (30) Dreyfoos ED (Elizibeth
Dwaskin)
(4) Regis ML (Mike Lavigne) def. (29) Isadore Newman CS (Chris
Suprinant)
(5) Scarsdale MC (Melody Chan) def. (28) Bishop McGuinness CJ (Claire
Johnson)
(27) Regis MC (Mark Cummins) over (6) Regis PB (Pat Blanchfield)
(7) Regis KC (Kevin Clancy) def. (26) Scarsdale CC (Connie Chan)
(25) Trinity Prep RD (Ryan Daviduke) def (8) Hunter College SM (Sasha
Mathias)
(9) Scarsdale BG (Beth Goldstein) over (25) Scarsdale LS (Lauren
Schreiber)
(23) Isadore Newman JM (Julia Mott) def. (10) Coral Reef AD (Aaron
Donde)
(11) Regis SC (Sean Cloonan) def. (22) Monteville Township RB (Ryan
Bondroff)
(21) Collegiate AZ (Alex Zachary) def. (12) Shenendahowa EC (Enca
Carlos)
(20) Randolph AK (Adi Kumar) def. (13) Regis ES (EJ Samson)
(19) Albany DB (?) def. (14) Bishop Mc Guiness KV (Katie Vaughn)
(15) Regis AM (Anthony Montaruli) def. (18) Scarsdale JM (Jonathan Moi)
(16) Regis CR (Chris Resig) def. (17) Hopkins RS (Rob Salitemon)

Regis SC over Regis MC
Providence SM def. Albany DB
Regis KC def. Isadore Newman JM
Regis AM def. Holy Ghost DH
Collegiate AZ def. Scarsdale MC
Randolph AK def. Regis ML
Trinity Prep RD def. Scarsdale BG

Randolph AK def. Collegiate AZ
Trinity RD def. Regis CR
Regis KC over Regis AM
Semis
Regis KC over Regis SC
Randolph AK over Trinity RD
And in the final round, Kevin Clancy of Regis defeated Adi Kumar of
Randolph. Congrats to all, and to anyone involved in running tournaments
with large fiields, a request: Make the cut to break rounds reasonable.
It's insane for no 4-2's to break, especially at a tournament as
expensive as Harvard. if you're gonna charge a lot of money, make the
cut reasonable (and try to get the judges to the rounds in under a half
hour...). I know debate is supposed to be fun, but an unreasonable cut
takes a lot of the fun out of it.
