The latest meet for the Red Hawks Forensics team happened last Saturday at Nemaha Central. The forensics team earned many more medals, which allowed them to place third overall. The dynamic duo of Cass Kreie and Ethan Pruitt placed fourth with a Humorous Duet. Junior Morgan Hurn placed third in two categories, those being Oral Interpretation and Original Oration, which are her first wins for the year. With these medals, Hurn joined the ever-growing list of State Qualifiers. Freshman Taylor Dvorak and her sister Jocelyn Dvorak brought home fifth for Impromptu Duet Acting, which is Taylor’s first win, and also qualifying them both for state in this category. Nathan Stroud and Jenna Madere both again placed in Poetry, with Nathan bringing in fifth place, and Jenna brought in fourth. Wish these Red Hawks the best of luck with their season!
