I started quizzing during my sophomore year. Anyone in middle school or high school is eligible for the quiz team. When I started, I fell behind during the first two months because of SAT's. This put me at a disadvantage, and I was clearly a handicap to my team. Kids in sixth grade were doing far better than me because I was not able to catch up. I did not let this bother me, and the next year I was able to prioritize and I was prepared for every quiz. I brought my team through the district division and the regional division. I myself moved up to the national division and won first place team. Now, all the younger kids look up to me not only as a great quizzer, but also a persevering man.
