Go Golden Gophers, your new 2009 and 2011 ICT Quiz Bowl Champions!

http://www.slate.com/articles/life/culturebox/2013/04/andy_watkins_harvard_inside_the_biggest_scandal_in_quiz_bowl_history.html

Despite Watkins’ protestations and NAQT’s pronouncement that there is “neither direct nor statistical evidence” of cheating, the former Harvard player doesn’t have many defenders in the quiz bowl world. Andrew Hart, whose University of Minnesota team was retroactively awarded the 2009 and 2011 ICT titles on account of the Watkins affair, puts it bluntly: “There’s no real gray area. It’s just cheating.”


Unfair Harvard, unfair!
