The Prospect High School Speech team competed in the IHSA state finals this past weekend in beautiful, serene Peoria, Illinois. Our team finished 10th out of 77 speech teams. Senior, Emmett Knee took third place in the state in Oratorical Declamation. But Emmett wouldn't stop there. With his dynamic partner, Senior Katie Jordan, they performed their Dramatic Duet Acting piece “Love, Will,” and took first place in the state of Illinois. That caps off a stunning season filled with hard work, dedication, and perseverance. Great job to all of our members! Special shout out to coaches Mr. McDermott, Mr. Morton, and Mr. Picolli. Wonderful job to all!
