Over 500 trophies were awarded at our tournament!
15 schools from 6 states attended our 3-day tournament February 7-9, bringing 1500+ entries in speech and debate events. In addition to our coaching staff and alumni, this tournament was made possible by the volunteer efforts of Murray State faculty, staff, and our community members!
Dr. Goke’s second year directing the Jackson Purchase Swing, he and the team also took on the Kentucky Forensics Association (KFA) State Championship in conjunction with our normal tournament schedule.
