The Okarche High School Speech Team completed qualifying competition for the 2020-2021 school year by placing several students in two virtual speech tournaments.
During the month of February, OHS speech students competed in the Weatherford and the Crescent invitationals.
Two students entered the Weatherford contest, and both received first place in their events: Emma Stover was first in prose and Brody Sadler first in original oratory.
Seven students received medals for placing at the Crescent competition.
McKenzie Stewart and Kaylea Steelman were tournament champions in humorous duet, and Emily Neuenschwander and Emma Stover were runners-up in the event.
The freshmen team of Rhylie Bomhoff and Reagan Marler placed first in dramatic duet, and Brody Sadler, an OHS sophomore, placed second in prose.
The OHS Speech Team is currently working on their performances for regional competition in March.
