In lieu of this week's
Athlete of the Week award, Bleeding Bruin Blue will hold a trivia contest this week. There are two main differences between the trivia award and AOW, namely:
- The trivia award is given based on trivia knowledge, rather than domination in the field of athletics.
- Any reader is eligible for the trivia contest, not just athletes, and no one is ineligible because they won recently.
With that in mind, the basic format of the trivia contest will be that I post trivia questions and readers respond to them. They can
e-mail me, they can leave their responses in the comments section...the method of response is not the most important thing. (This does not say that it does not matter. Please do not give me the answer by carrier pigeon, banner towed by aircraft, telephone, or fax. Skywriting is OK if I actually see it. While we're inside parentheses, you can also look up the answers for all I care.) At the end of the week, defined in this case as sometime Sunday afternoon, whoever has answered the most questions correctly will win. If multiple people have the same number of correct answers, I will randomly choose one. I will accept answers for any of that week's questions up until the end of the week.
With the previous paragraph in mind, here is the first set of questions:
- 1. What school did the Bethany baseball team defeat for the program's only sectional title?
- 2. What member of this team (the team BCHS beat) went on to play a major professional sport at its highest level?
- 3. In what year did the sectional take place?
- 4-5. In Game 7 of that year's World Series, name the losing team and their starting pitcher.
