Important: We need this tournament to run on time. Therefore, there will be no triple entries allowed (and hence, no waiting for students to get out of rounds before starting a debate, etc.). Students may double enter only. Also, extempers should not enter a pattern A event, as extemp prep is run during this time. Please don’t overlook this....
