Eight grader from NJ becomes the Queen bee

Friday when I was doing channel hopping, my attention was caught by the Spelling bee program on ABC. Recently there has been quite a lot of buzz about the spelling bee competition. There was a recent Movie released, a episode on spelling bee on Bernie Mac show and quite a few advertisements featuring kids taking part in the spelling bee competition. All these put together, it made me curious to see how this competition is. Hence I watched this program. Katharine Close, an eighth-grader at the H.W. Mountz School in Spring Lake, N.J won the national spelling title. Her wining word was 'Ursprache'.
This was the first time the spelling bee competition was covered live by a leading broadcasting channel. Take a look at what happened in 2004 spelling bee competition.
