The Keta Senior High Technical School National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) team have expressed optimism ahead of the finals.
In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh on Joy News's Facebook page, Ketasco's NSMQ team was asked if the performance of their predecessors in 2021 puts any pressure on them.
Frederick Adjavor Sowalo and Perpetual Sefakor Gakpetor both responded in the negative, adding that the achievements recorded by their seniors in 2021 will not in any way have an impact on them going into the finals.
Rather they explained that they take inspiration knowing that they could be remembered as the trio that helped their school win its first NSMQ trophy
The NSMQ final contest will be between Ketasco, Mfantsipim School and St Augustine's College.
At the time of writing the report, the video had raked in over 10000 views and 100 comments.
