2017 WWII HIGH SCHOOL QUIZ BOWL:
NEWS: Important Announcement Regarding the Results of the 2017 WWII Quiz Bowl Championship
Due to a scoring error on the part of the Museum, the results of the 2017 WWII Quiz Bowl Championship have been overturned. At the end of the competition on Thursday, March 30, Jesuit was announced to be the winner with a score of 275 to 260. After being notified of a scoring error by the assistant coach of the Jesuit team, the Museum independently confirmed that the actual score was St.Thomas 270, Jesuit 255.
This result makes St. Thomas High School of Houston, Texas, the 2017 WWII Quiz Bowl champs.
The Museum congratulates St. Thomas on their victory! The Museum further commends the Jesuit team for their honesty and integrity in bringing this information forward. Lastly, the Museum apologizes for the error.
Registration for the 2018 WWII Quiz Bowl will open on this page in early January.
