Congratulations to our Tournament of Champions team for finishing in the top four

The Chicago-Kent team of Natalie Adeeyo, Evelyn Hernandez, Ana Montelongo and Nicolette Ward reached the semifinal round of the 2015 National Board of Trial Advocacy's Tournament of Champions this past weekend at Washington University School of Law in St. Louis. The Chicago-Kent team beat teams from Temple, Baylor, Washington University in St. Louis, and Georgetown before being narrowly defeated by a team from Loyola Law School Los Angeles that went on to win the competition. The team was coached by Judge David A. Erickson, director of Chicago-Kent's Trial Advocacy Program; attorney David Lavin; Cook County Circuit Court Judge Demetrios G. Kottaras '84; Joshua Jones '08; and Alexandra Molesky '07. Kudos to all!
