Greater Pennsylvania Quizbowl Resource
The Greater Pennsylvania Quizbowl Resource (or GPQB) is a quizbowl blog that covers quizbowl in Pennsylvania.
The primary focus of the blog is to cover high school quizbowl events in the state of Pennsylvania. This includes tournament wrap ups, interviews, thought pieces, and a panel that issues pre-season, mid-season, and end-of season rankings for teams in the state. The blog also covers more general high school quizbowl topics such as outreach, study strategies, and coaching tips. There is also an associated podcast with episodes every few weeks.
The blog began in July 2014. In its first year, it only covered Philadelphia area quizbowl events, but expanded to cover the entire state of Pennsylvania in June 2015.
