Team History
Emmaus has been a major power in local bad quizbowl competitions and TV shows for most of this century. They are the only team to three-peat at the Pennsylvania State Academic Competition. In 2014, they began an impressive run under a tour-de-force senior season run by Ryan Bilger in their first year of pyramidal events, winning two events and finishing 2nd or 3rd at many others, culminating in 5-5 HSNCT. Though they have yet to reach the success of the 2014-15 season again on the pyramidal circuit, they have remained an attendee at Lehigh Valley and Philadelphia area events.
