Lafayette, Ind. - Teacher Madness 2022 has come to an end. Mr. Newkirk has emerged as this year's champion! In the closest finals in Teacher Madness history, Newkirk defeated Coach Nay. Newkirk becomes the lowest seed to ever win the tournament as a #3 seed. This tops off a big year for Mr. Newkirk as he was also selected as one of 50 teachers nationwide to be invited to Disney's Imagination Campus in recognition for being an innovative teacher.

"I just want to thank Newkirk Nation for all the support," Newkirk said. "I had amazing opponents, not only this year, but the last two years as well. It's been fun participating in the bracket for three years, but I'm excited to join the Hall of Fame and watch going forward."
