The Non-Trad Showdown

The Non-Trad Showdown is a tradition at the Gonzaga Debate Institute that attempts to show what happens when two “K Teams” face one another. This Showdown is unique in that both sides agreed to provide no disclosure and to flip for sides right before the debate. This Non-Trad Showdown features the Edebate Allstars (Jon Sharp and Mike Hester) on the Aff and Idaho State OD (Scott Odekirk and Izak Dunn) on the Neg.

We have recently updated the video page with some fresh lecture videos. Make sure to check these out (you certainly didn’t catch everything the first time). This will be the first wave of a number of videos that will be uploaded to the site this summer. We hope the video enhances your experience at camp and allows you to take some of the instruction you get in Spokane to your home squads.
