World History Tournament of Champions
Fall of 2010 General Info.
We have modified the final week of voting. Round 5 is now a single day (Wednesday) so that we could get the final day of voting on Thursday instead of the craziness of Friday (the last day before break for many schools). Please take a look at the new schedule!

Round 1 Information
If you’ve never been involved with a tournament before, you don’t want to miss out. We start with a grouping of 64 “player” – historical figures from history. We match them against one another to determine which of the two had the greatest influence on history. The bracket looks just like the ones you’d see in March for the NCAA Basketball tournament.
