ITHACA, N.Y. — On Memorial Day weekend, Ithaca High School’s Brain Team participated in the NAQT HSNCT in Atlanta, Georgia.
On Saturday, they played through the fatigue of a late arrival and at least one member with a very bad cold against teams from China, Florida, California, Minnesota, Ohio, and New Jersey, ending the day with a 6-4 record. This was just enough to move on to the playoff games on Sunday, but put them at a disadvantage: Just one loss would knock them out.
