THE TWO WINNINGEST TEAMS TO CLASH IN A QUARTERFINAL MATCHUP
In 28 years of Scholastic Games broadcasts, Elyria High School and Olmsted Falls High School have each won our annual championship five times. One of these schools will be eliminated from the running this year in this quiz program, which promises to be one of the most 
exciting competitions of the year. Returning to represent Elyria’s academic team are, as pictured left to right, Matthew Carson, Garrett Worden, and John Schumann. The Olmsted Falls team 
consists of, left to right, Harrison Graham, Ben Meredyk, and Nick Gaba. Graham is being heard for the first time on this broadcast. Schumann and Meredyk are former “Standout Scholar” winners.

As in past years, our highest-scoring losing teams in the first round get a second chance at the playoffs as “wildcards.” The total number in the field determines the number of eligible schools.

On this Dialogues program, the FlexFactor program begun at Lorain County Community College’s Early College High School is now expanding to school districts across the county. It involves local businesses and industry in developing student talent with the idea for future employment in the area of Flexible Hybrid Electronics Manufacturing. Students are immersed into the 
world of advanced manufacturing technology. They then may continue into LCCC’s Micro Electronic Mechanical Systems program where there has been great success in having each student involved in an internship, and in many cases, full time employment with local industries. FlexFactor College Prep Coordinator Deanna Hersko (right, above) and Director of Talent and Business Innovation, Terri Sandu (right, below), are the featured guests with information on how students can get involved.
Innovations in this area apply to many industries from automotive to medical and beyond. Program Director Brynt Parmeter offers insights into how the program works, how it has expanded in Lorain County and how students are learning about new career paths in this “Dialogues” interview.
