A Chase trial team won the Kentucky Mock Trial Competition this past weekend, defeating all other Kentucky law schools for the second year in a row. The team of Brianna Fuqua, Brittany Ellis, Christy Hiance and Chelsea Himes won every judge’s ballot in every round. Team coaches were Ryan Dowdy ’03, Nick Hunt ’17, Jesse Taylor ’17 and Sheree Weichold ’19, a member of the winning team last year. A second team of Michael Caligaris, Keegan Facemire, Natalie Rausch and Rachel Specht advanced to the semifinal round of competition. It was coached by Mark Gerano ’14, Del Weldon ’08, Ian Mitchell ’13, Zac Anderson ’17 and Robert Lotz ’19. Professor Jack Harrison is the faculty coordinator for the teams. Coming up next: the National Trial Competition, the American Association of Justice National Competition and the South Texas Mock Trial Challenge.
