ALL BETS ARE ON: You are now invited to select a speller to win the National Spelling Bee tomorrow. They're all listed here (the ones without the E's, obvo).

First come, first served. Choose one, and only one. Explain your reasoning, and show all work.

For me, since it's my blog, I get to take four-timer Katharine Close of Spring Lake, NJ. A woman has yet to win this century, and she's battle-tested and ready.

(I look forward to someone taking Alexis Ducotte, given the meager words he's had to spell so far, or Dominic Errazo, he of the three words in sixteen letters.)

More statistics and analysis to come later tonight. Did you know all 4 four-timers have survived to tomorrow's championship?
