Congratulations Scholastic Bowl:

The Geneseo Varsity Scholastic Bowl team ended its season in a close match with Dunlap to earn the runner-up position in the Regional Championship game.

We were also the winners of the first inaugural Nerd Bowl at LP in January. Thank you to all the players at both JV and Varsity levels for making it a memorable season!
