WEDGWOOD CROWNS NEW 24 GAME TOURNAMENT CHAMPION

James Schussler, a fifth-grade student in Mrs. Donna McGough's class, won the 13th annual Wedgwood School 24 Game Championship Tournament, defeating three fourth-graders in a tight match that came down to the very last card.

Schussler provided quick mental math solutions to win the 24 Game Championship by a score of 8-7, holding on to defeat Daisy Chen, a fourth-grader in Mrs. Kristin Haines’ class. Aisha Antoine, a fourth-grade student in Mrs. Lisa Mills’ class, came in third place with 5 points, while fourth-grader Frank Spadafore, from Mrs. Heather Ritchie’s class, rounded out the championship round finalists.

Schussler received a LEGO trophy built by Math Specialist Mr. Domenick Renzi, a 24 Game Champion T-shirt, and the 24 Game gold medal. Chen received the second-place silver medal and a pack of 24 Game cards. Both students proudly wore their medals for all to admire.

The 24 Game is a card game in which the object is to manipulate four integers so that the end result is 24. Addition, subtraction, multiplication and/or division may be used to make the four digits equal 24. Wedgwood fourth- and fifth-graders have been practicing the 24 Game for several months. Each classroom recently held its own competition, with the top two finishers from each room advancing to Wednesday’s championship tournament. The semifinals, featuring 16 Wedgwood students, were held earlier in the day.

Classroom representatives from each of the fourth- and fifth-grade homerooms included: Daisy Chen and William Stoklosa (Mrs. Haines); Gabe Hick and Aisha Antoine (Mrs. Mills); Harley Butts and Eva Paulson (Ms. Wills); Brooke Chaloult and Frank Spadafore (Mrs. Ritchie); Paige Sunwa and Emily McLaughlin (Ms. Thies); Alani Elam and Elliot Riggins (Mr. Dobzanski); James Schussler and Jake Stanley (Mrs. McGough); Cole Goehringer and Aiden Jones (Mrs. Swider).
