Warner didn't watch just any show, though. The senior watched past episodes of "Battle of the Brains," a Richmond-based quiz show for high school students.

"It helped get the style of questions in my mind. Because it's a trivia competition. You've got to know the stuff, but it's more about the mental connections you're making, just knowing when to hit the buzzer." Hudson Bronik-Ezzell agreed that watching the show and knowing the format helped. Bronik-Ezzell, like her teammates, are also part of Staunton's scholastic bowl team, which competes locally against other area schools. But the questions on "Battle of the Brains" and the ones heard during scholastic bowl are very different.
