Two University of Georgia teams will now be at the NDT.

UGA HL, senior Karen Harrison and freshman Austin Layton, have officially qualified to the 2010 National Debate Tournament, advancing from the tough District Six debate tournament.

After two days of competition, HL secured a solid 4-2 record, including wins over Emory and Wake Forest Universities. They will be joining UGA CL (Cambre and Lacy) at the NDT in Oakland, CA in mid-March.

The University of Georgia team of Brittany Cambre and Mike Lacy has been awarded a first round at-large bid to the 2010 National Debate Tournament, to be held in Oakland, CA in March. Recognizing UGA CL as one of the 16 top two-person debate teams in the country, recieving a "first round" is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious awards in policy debate.

Since West Georgia I have been considering a theoretical issue that confronted me as a result of something that happened in the quarters debate. What is the status of an argument that is neither explicitly contested nor explicitly conceded? I would appreciate others thoughts and comments.
