Jefferson City High School hosted one of the last tournaments for debate teams around the state before districts. “I’ve done two tournaments so far and I’ve won first place at both of them, so it’s definitely been something surprising, especially to join this late in the season when everyone else has been [competing] for a while,” Kinzy said.](https://pwestpathfinder.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DSC_0752-900x600.jpg)
