Dear Editor:
We found your headline of three weeks ago stating that the DI teams stumbled at globals to be quite offensive.
Those kids did not stumble! Quite the contrary; they performed admirably! When our small schools can send three teams to the international contests, they deserve considerable credit.
This was not a state contest; this was not even a national contest. This was a worldwide contest! They not only qualified to compete; they placed quite well.
We consider their placing in the top 20 out of hundreds of teams and having the Think-a-Dinks place 11th out of 60-plus teams to be awesome!
The DI teams and their coaches deserve tons of credit for all the time and hard work they put into this achievement.
