Adam Fine played for Yale before coming to Chicago for his PhD.

In high school, Adam played for University of Chicago Laboratory Schools, where he placed T-21st at 2015 HSNCT and T-8th at 2015 NSC. He was named a Honorable Mention for the 2015 HSQBRank All-World Teams.

Adam's deep science and flashcard knowledge were key to the Yale squads that won the DI ICT championship in 2018 and 2019. He also carried a team of Auroni Gupta, Jakob Myers, and Clark Smith to victory at the 2019 Chicago Open.

In recent years, Fine has declared himself to be the "#2 Science Player" in collegiate quizbowl (i.e. second only to Geoffrey Chen), which was corroborated by losing to Chen at 2023 ICT and in that year's subject-specialist player poll [1].

Despite the official statistics of ACF Nationals 2016 and 2017, Adam's middle initial is rumored not to be, in fact, an "S."
