Hoarders of Excrement — win
ning the tournament.
Two weeks ago. the competi
tion began with 52 teams, some
made up of dormitory residents
and some who competed in the
at-large category. The final
eight teams — five from the
dormitories and three at-large
— made it to the final round
The following is an example
of the kinds of questions faced
by those who entered the com
petition — In JHll and IHI2.

round three Shoom eliminated
Team Steve. Habe Way Hip beat
3.97/3X/R, and Dukes of Haz

Shoom was eliminated by the
Dukes of Hazzard. who were
beaten out by 3.79/3X/R. With
that win, the members of
3.79/3X K earned a final match
up with Babe Way Hip to deter
mine the tournament team
championship.
3.79 3X/R won the first con
test handily, but because Babe
Way Hip had not lost a match
all night, the two teams played
a second game to determine the
championship. Babe Way Hip
won the second game, and the
tournament, decisively.
Throughout the evening's
competitions, a tally was kept
of the number of correct an
swers given by each individual.
The four players who gave the
most correct answers will make
up a University all-star team, to
compete in the regional tourna
ment March 2 at Oregon State
University in Corvallis.
The winner of that tourna
ment will then go on to the na
tional finals.
Sue Pederson, director of the
EMU Recreation Center, which
sponsors College Bowl, said
that overall the competition
this year was strong.
"It seems like it goes back
and forth every year — some
times the teams from the
dorm’s dominate and some
times the at-large teams do,"
she said. "This year the at
large teams did."
The answers to the questions,
by the way, are Missouri and
