Baylor makes semifinals in National Ethics Trial Competition!
OK, you know the mock trial team I have been coaching with GED3 and Celebrity Luvr? Well, they are in their competition now in Sacramento at the National Ethics Trial Competition. The news is good: They have made the semifinals after winning rounds with Temple, Alabama, and UC-Santa Clara. This morning they face Buffalo in the semis.
Perhaps, because of Baylor's record of success, this seems like no big deal to you. But it is! Consider the following:
-- Temple and Alabama are two of the top programs in the country.
-- None of our advocates have previously competed in mock trial.
-- One of our advocates is a first year student, and another is in his second year.
-- It took a nearly flawless performance to break to the semis from 20 competing schools.
Congratulations, team!
UPDATE: Lost in the semis. Still, a good run for a great bunch of students. I'm proud of them.

Osler, please come to Sacramento with your teams more often, as you are extremely good luck.

I can't wait to see what kind of magic you have up your sleeve for 2009.

TJ, Kaye, and Ed are three of the hardest working and humble people you'll ever meet. BLS has alot to be proud of with these folks.
Just an observation- GED3 would be the scariest zombie in all of Baylor Law. I have a feeling that his undead hunger would emulate his, well, alive hunger and that would be bad news for all of us.

Hey Team,
I wish I could have been there with you pulling you on, but I appreciate the hall pass to see my baby girl off to France. She arrived safely. I'm proud of the team and always knew that each of you got game. Hope to work with you again.
