Comet Winter Clash
The Comet Winter Clash Invitational, formerly known as the Glen Gonsalves memorial tournament, is Solon High School's annual quizbowl tournament, usually held around mid-February. It consists of a Saturday tournament with High School and Middle School divisions (using NAQT's IS and MS series respectively) and a Sunday mirror of HFT.
Saturday Tournament
The Saturday Tournament of Comet Winter Clash has consistently been held since 2007, and always on one of NAQT's Invitational Series (IS) sets. Detroit Catholic Central A (MI) has the most wins out of any team, at 4, while Miami Valley A (OH) and Olmsted Falls A (OH) are tied with 3. All three schools also have the distinction of winning the tournament 3 years in a row, with Olmsted Falls having done so from 2010 to 2012, DCC from 2015 to 2017, and Miami Valley from 2018 to 2020.
