Academic Bowl

The Gallaudet Regional Academic Bowl was held January 10-13, 2013
at the Model Secondary School for the Deaf (MSSD) in Washington,
D.C. There were 16 teams competing. The 2013 WSD Team included:
Lyssa Matsche, Mitchell Perry, Alex Kubiske and Anna Dorst. Athletic
Director, Mr. Matthew Eby was able to accompany Academic Bowl
Advisor, Ms. Susan Dupor to chaperone. While the students were
gone for this event, WSD and family at home were able to follow their
progress with a brand new TWITTER (social media) page (www.
twitter.com/GUAcademicBowl) or via the WSD Facebook page (www.

pictures and give live updates of the matches, as well as share scores.
WSD competed against some large Deaf Schools as well
as mainstreamed programs. One of the favorite memories
of the Bowl was playing against the three year straight
National Champion, Maryland School for the Deaf. WSD
did very well, in fact, “we were the most hotly contested
team against Maryland”, shares Susan Dupor, during the
Friday and Saturday matches. Even the Maryland coaches
made positive comments about how impressed they were
with our students. Maryland School for the Deaf took first
place (yes, again!), with MSSD taking second place and
Florida School for the Blind and Deaf taking third.
Lyssa felt that WSD had an excellent chance of winning next
year as Maryland had some excellent players graduating. She also
remembered the Maryland coach being nervous with the match
against WSD.
Anna was disappointed that the Washington Monument was
closed but was excited that they were able to see the original “Star
Spangled Banner” in the American History Museum. The group
also met Drew Robarge, a deaf man, who works at the Museum
and offered to give a brief tour.
Alex was thrilled to have met Curtis Pride, an African-American man who played baseball with many
different MLB teams and is now the Head Baseball Coach at Gallaudet. WSD is looking forward to the 2014
Spring 2013 - 11
Academic Bowl with anticipation.
