(Feb. 28) – South Texas College of Law Houston recently announced that has won its 124th and 125th national advocacy titles this month.
South Texas students Morgan Bird, Sarah Cutropia, Delaram Falsafi, Daniel Mears and Shawn Williamson won the Law & Science National Mock Trial Competition hosted by the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University.
In the second championship this month, law students Stephanie Bryant, Niloufar Hafizi and Randall Towns took first place at the National Constitutional Law Moot Court Competition at the William & Mary Law School in Williamsburg, Va.
“Our dedicated advocates put their blood, sweat, and tears into preparing for these championships and they deserve all the recognition they receive,” T. Gerald Treece, STCL Houston Advocacy Program director and associate dean, said in a statement.
“Most importantly, by putting in the time and energy to prepare for tournaments, these students develop an outstanding set of persuasive legal skills that will set them apart in a courtroom following graduation.”
