Michael Angelo Sorice is currently a Ph.D. candidate in Nuclear, Plasma, and Radiological Engineering at the University of Illinois. During his extremely long college quizbowl career for Illinois, which began in 2000 and lasted into the early 2010s (excepting the 2002-2003 season, when he was not in school), Sorice was consistently one of the best active players in the college game, winning several regional tournaments and top scoring awards. His editorial accomplishments include Illinois Open from 2003-2007, the 2007 Illinois Novice tournament, ACF Fall 2007, and the physics/other science for 2013 ACF Nationals.

Sorice's career accomplishments include 2nd-place finishes at ICT in 2006, 2007, and 2009. From 2009 to 2011, Sorice played with Ike Jose, who took over as team captain upon Sorice's effectual retirement from quizbowl after a 3rd place finish at 2011 ACF Nationals.

Sorice is a member of PACE, and served as the tournament director for the 2010 NSC.

Sorice was known for a long time as "Hair Boy" due to his long gold locks (pictured), which have since been sheared.
