2008 High School NATIONAL ACADEMIC CHAMPIONSHIP
Tulsa Defeats Scoring-Machine Wilmington in Finals
Booker T. Washington (Tulsa, OK) won the 1992 National Academic Championship under the leadership of Coaches Andy Zahller and Mark Hames. This year, former Coach Hames's son Dylan led the Tulsa team to their second national title. They are only the third school to win Nationals more than once: Dorman (SC) won the title in '89 and '91; Irmo (SC) won it in 1986, 2001, and 2002. Flanking Dylan Hames with solid contributions for Booker T. Washington were Carl Engle-Laird, Jordan Rogers, Billy Chyan, Onkur Sen and Susanna Michael.
