The regional knowledge bowl competition was held at Lamar Community College on February 10.  Teams from 24 schools scattered across Southeastern Colorado competed in the state-qualifying event.  Six 2A schools and 18 1A schools were represented at the meet.

The competition was fierce,and a mere five points separated the third through eighth place teams in the 1A division, while there was a four-point spread between the second and fourth place 2A teams.  The top six 1A and top two 2A schools qualified for the state tournament.

Look for mostly sunny conditions and highs in the 50s through Friday, with winds around 10 miles per hour.

The major exception will be Monday night into Tuesday, when a rain-snow mix is possible from a system that will enter the area. Temperatures will struggle to get to the mid-40s, with 20-25 mph winds out of the northeast becoming north. Less than a tenth of an inch of precipitation is expected Monday night, and less than an inch of snow Tuesday.
