Mock Trial Brings Home Hardware


The Mock Trial Team came home from the University of Saint Francis Mock Trial Invitational with considerable success. Team 1014 placed 5th out of 18 teams at the invitational, as well as winning the Spirit of AMTA (American Mock Trial Association) Award. A truly nice trophy, which changes colors as you watch, can be seen in the Mock Trial Team's packed award case on the second floor of Hill Building.

In addition to team success, the 1014 Team also earned individual awards. Brendan Bryant once again won Outstanding Attorney (scoring a perfect 20!), and Franklin Howard also repeated as Outstanding Witness.

The ONU teams litigate into action next at home. The ONU Mock Trial Invitational will be held on January 15th and 16th, and some 42 teams from across the nation are scheduled to attend.
