Mock Trial Team Advances to Playoffs
Congratulations to the Senior School’s mock trial team for advancing to the playoffs in the 2015 Pennsylvania Bar Association’s Mock Trial Competition.
Thanks to the team’s winning prosecution and defense trials in the first round of the competition, the team advanced to be one of eight schools in Allegheny County competing to advance farther in the competition. The team’s season came to an end when they lost a very close playoff trial on February 23, but this year’s team has set a high standard to which future teams can aspire.
