Two Rivers Romance Rumble
General information This is a High School tournament in Minnesota. View manager contact information
Hello!
We hope you can join us for third year hosting a tournament at Two Rivers High School High School held on Saturday, February 8th 2025. We are excited to bring a little fun to the party with a Valentine's Day themed tournament.
Two Rivers is located in Mendota Heights just east of Minneapolis and south of St. Paul. We are proud to announce that this is a NIETOC Nationals Bid Tournament for the 2024-2025 season. Let us know if you have any questions on NIETOC, or how the process works! We will offer all 13 MSHSL events plus POI and Impromptu. A live document will be posted to “Files for Download” in the coming months.
The tournament will consist of three rounds and finals. With East Ridge not hosting on the same day this year we anticipate a larger number of entries. We will offer novice division. We define novices as students in their first year of speech or students in grades 7-9, regardless of experience. Novices will compete at Friendly Hills Middle School for prelims and the High School for the final round.
Students may double enter in any events, including discussion and a prepared speech. Highly seasoned speakers may triple enter. To celebrate students trying new events, we will offer individual sweepstakes for the top three students! As the tournament is so close to Valentines Day Individual Sweeps winner will receive roses as a recognition of their hard work.
