NSMQ 2026: Revenge complete as TAMASCO sends Aquinas packing, books quarter-final spot
Tamale Senior High School (TAMASCO) has completed a remarkable turnaround against St. Thomas Aquinas SHS, eliminating the Accra-based school in the One-Eighth Stage of the 2026 National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ).
Labone Senior High School stunned the competition in the 2026 National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) One-Eighth stage by defeating the highly-seeded Koforidua Secondary Technical School. The Accra-based school dominated the quiz, scoring 44 points compared to Koforidua's 20. In the opening rounds, Labone's lead began with a comfortable 15-11 margin and grew in Rounds Two and Three, where they scored 26 and 28 points respectively, while Koforidua managed 10 and 10 points.
The school's dominance was especially evident in the True or False round, where Labone answered all questions correctly, securing a perfect score. Although Koforidua salvaged some honor with a strong performance in the GOIL Riddle Bonanza, correctly answering three out of four riddles, it was not enough to overcome Labone's lead.
Koforidua's NSMQ journey ends with this defeat, while Labone advances to the quarter-finals of the 2026 NSMQ competition. The quiz is produced by Primetime Limited and sponsored by various organizations including the Ghana Education Service, Goil Plc, Prudential Life Insurance, and many others.
