Shannon Theobald and Alison Queen were selected to attend the Closing Bell Ceremony at NASDAQ tomorrow based on their performance in the DemandTec Retail Challenge. As local winners of the competition, both received a $1,000 scholarship and have been invited to NYC for the ceremony.

Allison is actually too busy with school right now to go, but Shannon and another girl – Emalie – will compete as a team against 6-8 other teams who’ve won their local contests from around the country for a chance at an additional $10,000 scholarship in the Grand Finals.
