National Geographic Bee: Live Blogging the Bee

by Kelly Amabile (RSS feed) on May 22nd 2007 at 11:50AM

For the first time in the 19 year history of the National Geographic Bee, there is no tie-breaker at the end of the preliminary rounds to determine the top ten finalists. Here is the list of winning finalists, mostly 7th and 8th graders:

Andrew Lee, Alaska
Antonio de la Pena, Colorado
Ben Geyer, D.C. (this is Ben's third time competing in the Bee)
Suneil Iyer, Kansas
Solly Mayer, Kentucky
Tyler Bowen, Oklahoma
Francisco Vargas, Puerto Rico
Mark Arildsen, Tennessee
Caitlin Snaring, Washington (the only girl to make the final)
Ben Taylor, West Virginia (Ben is a 10 year old 5th grader!)

A full recap with quiz questions and photos to follow later today.
