The St. Joseph’s Central High School of Pittsfield, MA, meets New Leadership High School of Springfield, MA, in week 3 of WGBY’s As Schools Match Wits Saturday, November 15 at 7 p.m. Beth Ward, an award winning journalist with a 17-year career in local and national television news hosts.
One of the country’s longest running academic quiz shows, As Schools Match Wits enters its 48th season with a roster of 50 high schools from across western New England. The top eight highest scoring teams at the end of the season will go to the finals and compete for the championship. The latest standings, broadcast schedule and video podcasts of each episode are available at www.wgby.org/asmw.
The show’s format features area high schools competing in teams of four students each. In classic quiz show style, the teams answer questions based on school curriculum. The school getting the most points for correct answers wins.
Sponsored by Berkshire Bank and Big Y Supermarkets, and produced at the studios of Westfield State College and broadcast in high definition on WGBY, As Schools Match Wits delivers all of the fun of the classic high school quiz-show and introduces a new generation of high-school students to one of the few public competitions that stresses knowledge over physical ability.
