The seventh annual competition was held from January 12 through this past Super Bowl Sunday.
"Winning a state championship is always prestigious," said Mitchell. "However, this year is especially notable, as there were more than one million students, from all 50 states and 19 countries on the reading field for the big game this year. I am so proud of every student who competed and congratulate our state and national champions.” Overall, students from across the globe read for more than 800 million minutes during READBowl IX.
