Dear Friends and Colleagues,

The Lincoln East Debate Team, parents, and coaches invite you to attend our 35th annual(ish)  Samuelson Sweeps Debate Tournament on Saturday, January 15, 2022. We plan to be IN PERSON this year. However, given our luck with weather in the past as well as continued uncertainty regarding COVID, we may shift to online if necessary. We will keep you updated!

For three decades the Spartan Invitational has provided challenging competition in a wide range of forensic events, and this year's tournament will be no exception. We offer competitive experiences in Baldwin-X (LD), Cross-Examination, and Public Forum Debates, as well as Student Congress.   

We want to treat you and your students to the best overall tournament experience possible.  We offer a well-run, on-time tournament with good judging, and fun awards. 

 If you have questions about the 2022 Samuelson Sweeps, please don't hesitate to contact us.  Good luck as the season progresses, and we look forward to seeing you in January!

John Holen 

Director of Debate
