Stats [1]

The 2007 High School National Championship was won by Maggie Walker, consisting of Will Butler, Mark Guerci, Mehdi Razvi, and Evan Adams. The tournament was held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Rosemont, Illinois. 160 teams competed, breaking the record for most teams at a single site national championship tournament, set at the previous year's HSNCT.

Tournament results

Maggie Walker beat State College in the first game of an advantaged final to win the tournament. These two teams played after Maggie Walker eliminated Thomas Jefferson and State College eliminated Dorman. Thomas Jefferson would go on to win the third place game. This somewhat unconventional double elimination was spawned by the large field.

Documentary trailer

A film crew took footage at the tournament for a prospective documentary, though no full-length or short was ever released. A reuploaded copy of the trailer for "Quiz Bowl", which infamously uses the rap song "Remember the Name" by Fort Minor, is the only remaining evidence of the project; it is available on Youtube here.
