Wellesley High quiz kids qualify for TV show’s Final 16

A team of 6 Wellesley High School students has cracked the final 16 for season 6 of WGBH’s High School Quiz Show. That means the teens, who beat out dozens of other teams, will be competing in the bracketed single-elimination tourney on TV in the new year.

This is the second year in a row that Wellesley’s team has made the final 16. This year’s team again boasts members with a diverse set of knowledge that should help them answer questions across various categories.

We’ll keep you posted on when the shows are scheduled to run.

In the meantime, here’s your team, coached by WHS math and computer science teacher Robert Cohen.
