Special Thanks to Our Volunteers

This event would not have been possible without the dedication of Cowley’s administration, faculty, staff, and alumni. Each year, they volunteer to moderate, keep score, set up, tear down, clean up, and provide snacks and drinks, all while supporting and cheering on our students.

A heartfelt thank you to Debbie Phelps, Mark Flickinger, Greg Mink, Michael Christensen, Mason Warren, Rhoda MacLaughlin-Ramirez, Charlotte Smith, Fresh Ideas, and CQB alumnus Spencer MacLaughlin for spending their Saturday contributing to the team’s success. Your involvement means so much to our students, who value having Cowley professionals by their side.

Shoutout to Absent Team Members

We also want to recognize Aidan Holman (B-Team) and Mollie Edge (C-Team), who were absent due to participation in other Cowley activities.

Congratulations to all our participants, and thank you to everyone who made this event a success!
