KU wins 2018 National Debate Tournament championship

KU debaters Quaram Robinson and Will Katz entered the National Debate Tournament in Wichita well prepared for the grueling test that lay ahead. Thirteen debate rounds later, they left as national champions. In order to win the championship, Robinson and Katz participated in eight preliminary debates during a span of three days before qualifying for a single elimination tournament involving 29 of the top debate teams in the country. Along the way, the KU team prevailed in debates against Georgia, Northwestern, UNLV and Harvard before defeating a team from Georgetown in the finals that featured the tournament’s top speaker. It was the second trip to the final round of the tournament for Robinson, whom KU debate coach Scott Harris called “the most successful debater in the history of KU Debate.” It is the sixth time a team from KU has won the national tournament.
