Dear Forensicators,

The coaches and students of Kansas State University and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln invite you and your students to the 10th Annual UN-L/K-State Swing: UNL-Cornhuskers on Saturday, January 27th, 2018 and the K-State Wildcats tournament on Sunday, January 28th, 2018. Both tournaments will be held on the campus of Kansas State University and head quartered out of Nichols Hall. Dr. Allison Bonander (UN-L) and Darren Epping (K-State), along with their coaching staff are already planning a fun and competitive weekend for your visit.

Both tournaments will offer two preliminary rounds and the appropriate number of elimination rounds in the eleven AFA events. Awards will be given for 1st-6th places. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place awards will be given for School Sweepstakes at each invitational. In addition, an award will be given in overall team sweepstakes for the swing tournament. To receive a swing trophy, you must have participated in both halves of the swing. We will have breakfast food for all and food for judges both days.

Entries for the tournament can be made using Speechwire.com by 5:00 p.m. Tuesday, January 23rd.

Those coaches who have run or attended tournaments with last minute cancellations realize the trauma caused to the tournament director and the students. Hoping to discourage this, fees will be assessed on the basis of information received as of 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday.

We look forward to seeing you at the swing. If you have any questions, call/email Darren Epping 402- 309-4641 depping@ksu.edu or Allison Bonander at 402-690-8152 AllisonBonander@gmail.com.

Sincerely,
Darren Epping (ADOF, K-State) & Allison Bonander (ADOF, UN-L)
