The reason why I nominated Alec is because he constantly comes up with ways to keep the other three of us focused and on point. Without him, I do not believe that we would have received the bid to go to the state bowl. He is the reason why we as a team continue to work hard and strive to win.

Guy is always there when my group and I are stumped on what a possible challenge or solution might be for our topic. He has great ideas and can apply his knowledge to a multitude of topics. He is always thorough in his research before hand and is very creative in his ways of using this research to create the end result, an interesting and futuristic action plan. Overall, Guy is a great team member who is respectful of all of our ideas and will constructively improve our ideas with some great “outside the box” solutions.
