LAVC Speech Team Wins a National Title and Other Accolades at the National Speech Championships
The LAVC Speech Team recently earned the "Silvia Mariner Award", a Team Gold Medal for "Individual Speaking Events", and a Team Silver Medal for "Overall" at the 2012 Phi Rho Pi National Public Speaking Championship in Schuamburg, Illinois. In addition, every single student on the LAVC team participated in a final round of competition and came home with an award, and for the second year in a row Valley College students claimed a fellowship award for being "most congenial". This year's team, which comprised of seven students, competed against 58 other community colleges from across the country. The following team members took home individual awards: Albert Pugliese (Silver Medal in "Persuasive Speaking", and Silver Medal in "Prose Interpretation of Literature"), Gregory Pugliese (Gold Medal in "Informative Speaking", and a Bronze Medal in "Poetry"), Sodani Chan (Gold Medal in "Readers Theater"), Spencer Belko (Gold Medal in "Informative Speaking", and Gold Medal in "Readers Theater"), John Henry Evans IV (Gold Medal in "Readers Theater", and Bronze Medal in "Prose Interpretation of Literature"), Kathy Martinez (Gold Medal in "Readers Theater", Gold Medal in "Program Oral Interpretation", Silver Medal in "Persuasive Speaking", and Bronze Medal in "Poetry"), and Karine Bagoumian (Bronze Medal in "Speech to Entertain").

The Overall award is given to the team with highest overall score including debate; however, LAVC does not have a debate team, which meant that LAVC students earned a large number of points in individual speaking events to receive a team award in this category. The team was coached by Duane W. Smith, director of forensics, Josh Miller, department chair of the Speech, and Eric Cullather, coach of the speech team. The Speech Team would especially like to thank the ASU for their generous support, which provided the funding for the team to attend the competition. Congratulations!
