NATIONAL SPELLING BEE 2008: ROUND TWO

The "locals" who made it to this year's competition include
Neil Michael Alacha (Scholars' Academy/Neponsit)
Allyn Mendoza Pasiliao (Saint Ignatius Loyola School/New York City)
Yassine El Yousfi (Longfellow Middle School/Mount Vernon)
Zachary Zagorski (Oceanside Middle School/Rockville Centre)
In Round Two, Neil put each letter of rubricate in its proper place, but Allyne made a bloody mess out of serology. Yassine failed to fly with tetrapteran, yet Zachary zapped affiliate.

As usual, the coverage is great at A List of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago. If I understand the scoring, it's possible that the above New Yorkers might all make it into Round Three. We'll see.
