Congrats to Creighton Prep for winning Nebraska State Mock Trial! Creighton Prep and Duchense Academy were in the finals and it was a hard fought competition.
This mock trial season has been a labor of love at the Bar Foundation with late nights and breakfast, lunch and dinner eaten at the office. Staff members had to quickly learn the ins and outs of new software and if you were to walk into the Bar Foundation office at any time you would see mock trials running on multiple screens.
One thing we have enjoyed is getting to see all the teams which we haven't gotten to do in the past. After 129 trials, we feel like we have gotten to know many of the teams. Thank you for putting so much effort and time into this Mock Trial Season. It really shows and we are very proud of Nebraska!
