Assuming my calendar is correct we have three remaining TOC qualifying
tournaments. They are the University of California-Berkley and Harvard
this weekend followed by Vestavia Hills tournament in Birmingham next
weekend. Both Berkley and Harvard are TOC qualifiers in both policy and
Lincoln Douglas at the octa finals level. Vestavia is a TOC qualifier in
policy debate at the semifinals level and in Lincoln Douglas at the
quarterfinals level.
MISSING RESULTS
As of today we are missing a number of results from from the finals level
