University Challenge: Best Buzzer Per Team

OK, here we go with a look back at the series gone by. To start with, here are the best individual starter tallies per team:

Tom Cappleman (New College) - 30 over 5 matches
Simon Tomlinson (Bangor) - 30 over 6 matches
Simon Dennis (U.C.L.) - 28 over 6 matches
James 'jim360' Gratrex (King's) - 25 over 6 matches
Richard Gilbert (Manchester) - 25 over 7 matches
Alexander Suebsaeng + Sam Mindel (St George's) - 21 each over 5 matches
Tom Foxall (Pembroke) - 20 over 4 matches
Martin Evans (Imperial) - 15 over 4 matches

Those are the best individual tallies for each team. Other notable high tallies include:

Adam Barr (Manchester) - 21 over 7 matches
Andy Hood (New College) - 20 over 5 matches
Amber Ace (King's) - 18 over 6 matches
Tom Parton (U.C.L.) - 17 over 6 matches
Debbie Brown (Manchester) - 17 over 7 matches
Tom Tyszczuk Smith (U.C.L.) - 16 over 6 matches
Robert Scanes (Pembroke) - 15 over 4 matches

If you want a complete list of starter tallies for all members of quarter-finalist teams, do tell me, and I will gladly add them to this.

A more comprehensive review of the series, with a list of highlights, will follow later in the week.

    1. Hmm, OK, you can't get my email like that. Use weu408-at-bangor.ac.uk

  3. Dennis faded individually after his 11-starter haul off the first match(?) - but I note that UCL and Manchester had great contributions from all players, so definitely and rightly the two outstanding teams this season, and for UCL supporters a pity that in the only match that counted they fell short.

    A shout-out too to Cappleman and Tomlinson for their wonderful individual contributions.

  4. I think it'd be interesting to see statistics per team, as well. I reckon UCL will have the most starters per match by quite a margin.
