The University of Washington quizbowl team is a collegiate quizbowl team consisting of students from the University of Washington in Seattle, WA.
History
For many years in the early 2000's, the UW quizbowl team was exclusively a CBI team. The university was the site for the 2005 CBI NCT.
In the 2008-2009 school year, former Maryland players Mike Bentley and Brittany Clark worked towards bringing the team back into the circuit. That year, the school hosted ACF Fall, TRASH Regionals, Penn Bowl, the Penn Bowl Trash Tournament, MUT and Matt Weiner's Trash Tournament, and also sent teams to SCT and VETO.
The team has won most events in the Northwest circuit since 2008, including the 2010 SCT where UW teams won both DI and DII. A hybrid team of Bellevue and UW players placed 3rd at the 2010 mirror of T-Party at Stanford, marking the team's first tournament outside of the region. The team plans on fielding its first team at a national tournament by sending a DII team to the 2010 ICT.
