Most of the schools that we go against are big universities. Debate is a part of their academic program, where they get taught and coached in classes. Saint Peter&#8217;s students debate for fun. Thus, I am really proud of our achievements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cWe also had more diversity in the type of debate formats we were participating in this time than ever before, which helped us in winning the third position overall.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the squad also won several individual and team awards.
