Honda Campus All-Star Challenge team selected

The Honda Campus All-Star Challenge began its 19th annual competition Oct. 3.

The challenge is a question and answer competition conducted at Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

The game covers a broad variety of topics from African American history to current events.

Each university competes within to determine a varsity team worthy of competing nationally.

The winners of the campus tournament, as well as players who show themselves to be strong competitors, will travel to Florida in the spring to represent Prairie View A&M University.

The team, comprising of four members, play fourteen minute rounds until a winning team is determined.

While some students decide not to partake in the tournament, Jarmel Joyner, a finalist from last year’s competition said “I think this is something every college student should do. The questions are topics that most people are taught in the classroom.”

The winning team of the tournament was the 420s. The team members are Jerrell Allen, Jarmel Joyner, Damien Burkes and Antoinette Allen.

“It feels good to be doing something positive as a student here at PV,” Allen said.
