After a hard-fought battle, St. Raphael School claimed the Fr. Larry Ober, S.J. Cup of Knowledge in the 2021 Brain Brawl after defeating Incarnate Word Academy.
For the past 11 years, the Brain Brawl competition for grade school teams has proven to be challenging and fun for students and parents alike. Each year, 24 teams compete in eight rounds of trivia for the coveted Cup of Knowledge. The winning team gets their name on the trophy and has it to display at their school for the entire year.
The brainchild of Admissions Director Pat O’Rourke ’90 and math teacher Jon Barker ’87, the competition quizzes students on everything from English to sports, pop culture to mathematics. The two write every question themselves, keeping each year fresh and challenging.
The tournament winners in each bracket for the 2019 Brain Brawl are:
-
Saint Raphael - Flight A
-
Holy Trinity - Flight B
-
Immaculate Heart of Mary - Flight C
Congratulations to all our teams that participated. We can't wait to see who returns for the challenge next year!
