  • The Thermopolis Bobcat speech and debate team boosted its season tourney record to 3-0 with a solid win at Worland Friday and Saturday. Freshman Logan Kay pulled an upset in dramatic interpretation by winning the event in only his third tournament. Senior Megan Kraushaar matched Kay’s efforts by winning in poetry interpretation. She also won a special award for overcoming the toughest competition; the prize was a Kindle e-reader.
