USN sent two talented mock trial teams to the district competition Friday, Feb. 23 and Saturday, Feb. 24. One team got a fourth-place finish, and the other team was led by the official best lawyer for the defense of the entire competition.

Both teams were fantastic, and now our Mock Trial team has so many underclassmen who have now experienced what it is like to compete on a high level.
