EL Debater Captures Title, Breaks Record

Elk Lake junior Molly Copeland not only won the Varsity Lincoln-Douglas Debate championship at the Central Susquehanna Winter Invitational Tournament at Bloomsburg University on January 14, she also broke a team record for debate wins in one day.

EL Forensics Team member Molly Copeland – First Place in Varsity LD Debate at the Central Susquehanna Winter Invitational at Bloomsburg University.

Copeland compiled an undefeated four win and no loss record in the preliminary rounds and a top seed in the Quarter-Finals by defeating debaters from Gettysburg, Trinity, Mechanicsburg, and Southern Lehigh High Schools.

In Quarter-Finals, Copeland won a unanimous 3-0 decision over Andrew Heeter from Mechanicsburg HS and advanced to Semi-Finals.

In Semi-Finals, Copeland defeated Shikellamy High School’s Jill Maratek, who had beaten Copeland in Finals at the Scranton Invitational in November.

This led to a Final Round rematch against Mechanicsburg’s Jordan Smith, who Copeland defeated in the 3rd round. Copeland prevailed on a unanimous decision to win the Varsity LD championship.

Elk Lake sophomore Max McKeon missed earning a trophy by placing fourth in Varsity Student Congress.

Copeland’s seven win and no loss record at a one day tournament marks the first time in the fourteen year history of the EL Forensics Team that a debater has gone undefeated in a seven round tournament. Several former debaters won six debates in one day.

“This was a truly remarkable performance. Not only did she win every debate but every judge in the preliminary and elimination rounds gave her the win,” commented EL Forensics Director Keith Brosious.

The EL Forensics Team traveled to Herndon, Virginia for the prestigious Potomac Falls Debate Tournament on January 21. Then, they will travel to Lake-Lehman HS on January 28 to compete at a Scranton CFL Tournament.
