Players and Coaches -- Ezra Lyon (former Carleton and Minnesota) and I (former Iowa State) are pleased to announce that the Minnesota Deep Bench tournament will be resurrected this year and held on the weekend of October 7, 2006, at the University of Minnesota. This is a packet-submission tournament in which schools compete via four-person teams as well as in singles and doubles matches. The full announcement may be found here: http://www.naqt.com/mqba/deepbench/2006/announcement.html and a description of the format may be found here: http://orgs.carleton.edu/quizteam/format.html This is a true invitational; the initial list of invited teams is: * Carleton * Chicago * Drake * Grinnell * Illinois * Iowa * Iowa State * Minnesota * Northwestern * St. Olaf * Wisconsin If these teams decline, others that have expressed an interest may be chosen to replace them. Ezra and I are also looking for teams to write additional singles/doubles rounds (26 tossups, no bonuses) in exchange for a copy of the questions used. We are also interested in any offers from schools that wish to host mirrors of the event. We are looking forward to running this event! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at robert.hentzel-at-naqt.com. -- R. Robert Hentzel Co-Tournament Director, 2006 Minnesota Deep Bench Tournament
