First speaker Owayne Honeyghan said that the victory was a special one for the team because it affirmed the importance of debating as an area in which Munro could excel.
"I am really happy that we were given the opportunity to come forward and to analyse issues that are currently facing our society, and we have contextualised it in a way that youths can understand it, and not only youths, but Jamaica at large," he said in an interview with The Gleaner.
