Barrington High School scores big win at National Academic Quiz Tournament
CHICAGO (CBS) -- It was a big win for some Barrington High School students.
Four students were named the champions of the 2023 National Academic Quiz Tournament held in Atlanta.
The team was comprised of Michael Karpov, Colin Stewart, Charles Young, and Rohan Kher beat out scholastic teams from premier high schools from across the country. The questions vary in all areas of knowledge.
The funny thing is they won the title after going head-to-head with a school they know well, their rival Buffalo Grove.
