The Rio Americano mock trial team is making their name known after placing third out of eight quarterfinal teams in the county. The team was able to overcome adversity, building their way back up from 15th place to winning the quarterfinals.
This is the highest the team has placed in the past three years, and the highest any of the current student “mock trialers” have gone. Thomas Leech is the coach of the team and was able to lead the students to victory.
“I am so proud of our team and the amazing season we had,” president Mia Golden said. “This is the best Rio Mock Trial has done in years. Our team had to make some changes this season and we had many new competitors, but everyone worked really hard and it paid off. We are excited for another successful season next year.”
