2020 graduate, Mack Kramer finished their senior year strong as Wyoming State Champion in Lincoln-Douglas Debate and then finished eleventh in Commentary at the National Tournament.   The Rock Springs Tiger came on the One Clap Podcast to open up Season Two and talk to Lyle about how they made the leap from novice-to-dangerous-debater in just one year.

Mack is a walking example of resiliency.  Throughout Mack's Speech and Debate competitive days at Rock Springs High School, they have had plenty of successes, but the story of Mack's rise from LD filler at the District Tournament last year to LD State Champion and National Qualifier to close out their senior year is epic. 

Mack spoke about the way they took their debate skills to the next level (one primary approach involves reflective journaling practice), their experience at the National Tournament (spoiler: Mack finished eleventh in Commentary at Nats!), their plans for the future, and their love for the Wyoming Speech and Debate community.

Thanks so much to Mack for their generosity in sharing their powerful story and ideas.
