[DEC. 13, 2004]
A trip to the competitive
Naperville Central Tournament of Roses proved to be a good test for
the Lincoln Community High School speech team. While the team placed
eighth out of 25 schools, seven individual events advanced to the
final. |

"Eighth place with this type of
competition is a great accomplishment considering the top five teams
in the state from last year's state final were there," said Lincoln
speech coach Ed Jodlowski. "We had a very good day, landing as many
kids in the finals as many of the best speech programs in the state
of Illinois. And, a few breaks here and there, we would have had
another five or six people in the finals."
Finalists for Lincoln included Kathryn
Muck and Brady Gerdts, second in dramatic duet; Muck, seventh in
dramatic interpretation; Tom Swanson, fourth in declamation and
special occasion speaking; Kassandra Pepperell, fifth in
declamation; Eric Knutilla, sixth in verse; and Knutilla and Gerdts,
fifth in humorous duet acting.
The entire team will compete this
weekend at the Olympia Christmas Classic.
