<p>Colleagues,<br /> The Ball State University Speech Team is pleased to invite you to the Cardinal Clash on Sunday, January 15, 2017. This tournament will be held in conjunction with Butler University&rsquo;s Bulldog Battle. Both tournaments will take place on the Butler University campus in Indianapolis, the Crossroads of America. The campus is just four hours from Ann Arbor and St. Louis, three hours from Chicago, Columbus (OH), and Lexington (KY), and two hours from Louisville and Cincinnati.</p> <p><br /> The Cardinal Clash will offer competition in all NFA individual events on Sunday and will also offer POI. For Impromptu we will use a variety of prompts, guided by the 2016-17 schema provided by the NFA Impromptu committee. Tabulation and event rules will follow NFA guidelines.</p> <p>We look forward to welcoming you and your students to the Cardinal Clash. We hope to see you in January!<br /> &nbsp;</p> <p>Sincerely,<br /> Mary Moore, Ashley Coker, &amp; Michael Storr</p> <p>bsuspeech@bsu.edu<br /> &nbsp;</p>
