Five Lions advance to speech finals

The team placed 6th overall out of 16 schools at a recent tournament

Five Lyons Township High School Speech Team members advanced to the finals at a recent tournament in Willowbrook. The students submitted a recording of their performance which was judged and scored in three separate preliminary rounds. Those scores then determined if a student made it into the finals. The virtual finals were conducted live. The team placed 6th overall out of 16 schools.
