Debaters who choose to cross-enter in another Individual Event do so at their own risk. The tournament will not delay debate rounds or Individual Event rounds to accommodate cross-entries.

CX/Policy Debate competitors may NOT cross-enter in any other event.

Cross-entry between Section A and Section B is permitted. Competitors who cross-enter are responsible for reporting promptly to both events.

Important Scheduling Policies

Rounds will be accelerated whenever possible. Competitors and judges should remain on campus and monitor Tabroom throughout the tournament. Subsequent rounds may begin ahead of the published schedule when possible.

We will NOT break brackets in debate elimination rounds.

The tournament may adjust elimination rounds based on entry numbers. When an elimination round is unnecessary, the subsequent elimination round may be moved into the earlier scheduled time slot.
