Clash of The Titans, a Forensics Speech and Debate meet hosted by Cosby High School, remains one of the states most attended invitational tournaments. This year the competition stepped up a notch; top schools Salem High School and First Colonial High School made appearances and the sense of competition was undeniable. As Midlothian Forensicators prepare its VHSL States’ Speech run starting Saturday, February 4th for conference, this competition provided a great warm-up. With numerous events stacked with tough competition and over 20 schools making appearances, Midlothian High School proudly brought home the 3rd Place Sweepstakes Trophies for both speech and debate.
