With the National Speech and Debate Association (NSDA) National Tournament in the books, Extemp Central will head into its off-season posting schedule until August. During this time, questions will still be uploaded on Mondays (for any extemp camps that may want to use them or for competitors that want to do some off-season prep) and quizzes will still be posted on Wednesdays. However, premium topic briefs and R&Ds will not return until August 4 and 5, respectively. Extemp Central will make a post when the SpeechGeek Market makes 2015-2016 seasons subscriptions available.
We will also finalize our posting of state tournament results in the coming weeks, as well as do a year-end wrap-up pieces to chronicle all of the big stories on the national circuit. Additionally, a National Points Race write up and standings sheet that encompasses all of this year’s ranked competitors will be released near the end of the week.
Finally, Extemp Central has secured interviews with some of the season’s top competitors. Interviews with NSDA International and United States Extemp Champions Brian Anderson and Brian Yu, NCFL Grand National Champion Yijia Liang, and MBA Extemp Round Robin and Extemp TOC winner Josh Wartel will be posted in August. Extemp Central also hopes to do another “season preview” piece by gathering information about some of the competitors to watch next season.
