PHS student Violet Anderson placed third in Impromptu Speech and eighth place in Informative Speech.
Joe McDonald and Hallie Tyler each tied for third in Public Forum Debate, though after the tie-breaker they were awarded fourth place.
Davis Smith placed eighth in Lincoln-Douglas Debates.
Columbia Falls took first place, while Whitefish claimed second and Frenchtown took third.
