Debating section

The new debating section is a good addition to this article. However, it is a bit too long given the overall length of the article (called undue weight in Wikipedia's guidelines). My suggestion is to condense the individual winner list by dropping the student names and just listing each award once with the years won. As in: NC Lincoln Douglas Debate State Champion, 2004, 2007, 2008.... If this is done, this list should be ordered alphabetically (I placed the list as it exists in chronological order per MOS. Also, it might be helpful to link this to the award to Lincoln–Douglas debate format since not all readers will know what this means. It also would be good to add some secondary sources, such as newspaper articles about the awards; the current sources are reliable but are not independent of the school since it is a member of the organization.
