It was just Varsity Quiz Bowl (no "star") when I was on it. I think they changed in the mid or late 1980s.

And we didn't receive a "letter" for it back then.

Yep, PBS Channel 12. Mel Leavitt hosted back in my day...

You shouldn't be embarrassed about that, you should be embarrassed about your online grammar... Seriously, what high school had you on their Quiz Bowl team-- McDonogh 35? ;-)
