The semi-final results had been posted on the SAUSD Tournament Website on October 28 at 9:25 PM. The update of forty-six speech team members attended the live zoom tournament on the following Saturday. This tournament, as well as all the others in the future, is split into three patterns consisting of A, B, and C. Pattern A, focuses on the debate. They finished their final rounds on October 28 and posted their results on October 30 at 6:00 PM during a live zoom announcement.
