In the tropical, 30 degree country of Malaysia our third tournament of the international season took place. Five teams from two schools participated in our competition at Kolej Tuanku Ja’afar–three teams from the host school and two teams from 2014 Championships-attendees Sunway International School.
Both our final matches featured school teams against each other, with Sunway A vs Sunway B in the high school finals and Kolej Tuanku Ja’afar B and C in the Middle School finals.
In the High School Bee finals, James, Hans, and Jason faced off in a 10-question race toward the most points. At question number ten, Hans and James were both tied at 3 points. The tossup was read, and Jason ended up getting the point, and James and Hans moved onto a sudden death tiebreaker where Hans prevailed.
Thank you to all the students and teachers who enjoyed our first Malaysia tournament of the year! We look forward to seeing you all at the next tournament at Sunway International School on March 8, 2015.
