Six competitors remain from the estimated 248 extempers that began the 2014 National Speech and Debate Association (NSDA) National Tournament on Monday. The United States Extemp final will take place tomorrow morning at 9:30 a.m. CST. Extemp Central will provide a recap of the round after it concludes.
Extemp Central has provided an overview to give its readers some background on who they will see in tomorrow’s final. The format used for each participant is similar to that used for our “Sweet Sixteen” pieces for the Montgomery Bell Academy Extemp Round Robin in January.
This year’s USX round is equally split between juniors and seniors and features four state champions, as well as the defending USX national champion. The participants share nine Extemp TOC qualifying tournament titles between them.
