We hope that you enjoyed the 2010-2011 extemporaneous speaking season and we here at Extemp Central were glad to bring it to you. This year we saw an extemper with the double crown for the third time, a record breaking National Points Race and National Team Points Race winner, an extemp national title return to Florida, and underclassmen perform well at some of the nation’s biggest tournaments.
Extemp Central looks forward to providing you with coverage of the 2011-2012 season. The site will not have any updates during the offseason, but we will launch content for the new season starting on August 1st. Check back then for new news quizzes, questions, R&D sections, and strategy pieces. CFL and NFL IX winner Dylan Slinger and NFL USX winner Jared Odessky have agreed to do interviews with Extemp Central and we look forward to bringing those to you in August. Also, Extemp Central will unveil changes being made to the National Points Race, as three new tournaments will be introduced and we will reshuffle the tiers. We will also release our “underclassmen top ten” pre-season piece.
Thank you to everyone who sent in qualifiers, results, and other information during the year. Also, thank you to the talented former extempers, Jacob Baker, Tyler Fabbri, Rohan Bhargava, Aaron Lutkowitz, Shahid Ahmed, Steven Elliot, Oscar Wang, James Mohan, Michael Barton, and Mirza Germovic, who volunteered to write previews for the big national circuit tournaments that took place this year. Without community support, this website would not be as good as it is and we hope that you will join us for another great season next year.
