Powers: Yes
Negs: No

Team A - Matt, Adhav, Krish, Grady, Varun

We are placed in a bigger division than last year, since our school has grown. This means, just like for the JV tournament, we are in a division with Midtown. Unlike the JV tournament, Charles (who has dominated us so far) will be playing.

Innovation Academy A 495, Eastside 155
Innovation Academy A 580, Woodland 90
Innovation Academy A 505, Ware County 95
Innovation Academy A 560, Paul Duke STEM 60
Innovation Academy A 425, Midtown 320 - A stunning victory! We finally beat Charles. Adhav came up huge with 3 powers, including one on the next to last question, which clinched the victory. Even a year later, this is probably the biggest victory in school history.
Innovation Academy A 600, Mary Persons 10
Innovation Academy A 590, Lumpkin County 100 - Its actually ties after 6 questions and I wonder if we'll actually blow it. If we lost this match, we'd have to play Midtown again. However, we pull away for our biggest tournament victory to date.

Adhav finished with 62.14 ppg and Krish had 54.29 ppg.

Other division winners
