Forensics Team Update 10/9/09

The EMU Forensics team has hit the ground running this season. Thanks to hard work and diligence from the coaching staff & students over the summer, the team has already traveled to seven tournaments, finishing third, third, third, third, second, fourth and seventh place respectively. Perhaps what’s most exciting about these finishes is that Eastern’s entry size at each tournament has been dwarfed by all other top 10 teams. Yet even with small entries, the students are fairing quite well in final rounds, bringing home team trophies over some of the most competitive teams in the country.
