A very special thanks to the scholars’ families for their support and enthusiasm throughout this journey which began last year in Athens and then to the Global Round in Barcelona, culminating in the Tournament of Champions at Yale University.
Congratulations Maria Violetta, Despina and Christo! Your performance, team spirit, scholarly ethic and character has given us all good reason to be most proud – thank you!
