Nuffield student team wins University Challenge match

Nuffield College students appeared on University Challenge for the first time on 5 October 2015, winning the match against Queen Mary University, London. The members were: Spencer Smith, from Holland, Michigan, studying Economics; Alexander Sayer Gard-Murray, from Los Angeles, studying Politics;  Captain: Mathias Ormestad Frendem, from Oslo, studying International Relations; and Daniel Kaliski, from Cape Town, studying Economics. They all performed very well; with Alexander Gard-Murray as the best buzzer of the night, they went on to win 165-130 against Queen Mary, qualifying for the next round. A huge well done to the Nuffield team, and good luck for the next match! The episode is available to watch on Youtube here.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C68IqTyrZWU
