Congratulations to the PTHS Academic Team for a great season!

The Quick Recall Team placed 4th in the Governor's Cup Regional competition Saturday. Competing with the QR team were Caroline Adkins, Max Canlas, Benny dos Remedios, Emme Haus, and Sam Marcum. The team defeated Caldwell in the first round then lost to Calloway in the 2nd. The 3rd round resulted in a win against Ballard, and then they were eliminated in the 4th round with a loss to Murray. It's great that our only losses were to the 1st and 2nd place teams, Calloway and Murray!


Special congratulations go out to Caroline Adkins, who secured a trip to the state finals in Louisville in the individual Composition event with her 4th place finish in the Region! That's an impressive improvement over her 5th place in the District considering the increased competition at the Regional level!
