Manzanola hosted the most recent junior high school Knowledge Bowl competition.  Students from Eads and Plainview represented Kiowa County at the meet.

Eads was able to split into two seventh grade teams.  Both teams competed extremely well and came home with hardware.  

The Eads teams had to compete head-to-head in the first oral round,  but were in different rooms after that.  Tucker Wallace, Adyn Hough, and Anthony Paez made up one team.
