New Kent High School is in New Kent, Virginia. It is coached by John Porter. In the past, New Kent has hosted several events on its own, such as the Trojan Academic Tournament, and was also an occasional venue for events run by the VCU club when their campus was not available. New Kent High School is located at the exact midpoint between downtown Richmond, VA and Williamsburg and is a convenient host for events seeking to bring together Richmond-area and coastal Virginia teams.

New Kent won a VHSL state title in 2013, reached the state tournament and the Battle of the Brains finals on several other occasions, and was a top-bracket playoff team at many events in Virginia during the 2010s. In 2015 they finished second in the quizbowl competition at Beta nationals.
