The Greybull High School speech team kicked off its 2024 varsity season this past weekend with a third-place finish in 1A/2A at the season opener in Thermopolis.
Greybull’s numbers were hampered by post-holiday illnesses and conflicts, which made for tough competition against the 18 schools in attendance.
“The tournament brought together some very strong programs from across the state,” said coach Joel Kuper. “But I saw some real growth from our novices, and our varsity members kept us in the tournament.”
While no one made it to the finals this time around, Grainger Russell, Gabriel VanderPloeg and Samuel Campos impressed the judges and earned their way to the semifinal rounds in their respective events. Russell and VanderPloeg competed in Humor, where Russell “just missed finals,” according to his coach.
