Slay the Dragon team receives trophy from last year's win

On Sept. 10, the Bellefonte Area High School Slay the Dragon team received prizes and a trophy from their tournament win last school year. Team adviser Melissa Duckworth said that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Centre County Youth Service Bureau was unable to hold its annual banquet, which is why YSB's Prevention Services Director Ian Marquez stopped by the school to honor the team.

According to Duckworth, YSB is hoping to hold the competition again this school year, but are still weighing the options. BAHS has won the title for six consecutive years.
