2021-2022
The Wilton Quiz Bowl team got off to a strong start in online tournaments in the fall, winning the Tal Atkins Memorial and coming second at LQBA with over 450 PPG in each tournament. In the northeast region, they went 7-3 at LIFT, the first in-person tournament in the region since March 2020. They also qualified for nationals after placing 3rd at East Brunswick Funfest, losing to Ridgewood in the semifinals but beating JP Stevens B in the third-place game.
This school year saw Wilton field a four-person team for the first time ever (LIFT). It also saw the rise of Kieran Lenihan as the team's literature-centered player after having focused on geography in middle school.
