The 2025-26 advocacy season is off to a great start, with the School of Law capturing two national titles during the fall 2025 semester.
In October, third-year law students Dustin M. Batchelor and Kerolls “Kero” Gadelrab won the National Claude Pepper Elder Law Moot Court Competition hosted by Florida State University. The team, which was coached by Adjunct Professor Cole M. Harper (J.D.’22), went undefeated throughout the tournament.
At the All-Star Bracket Challenge held in November, third-year law students Maya E.M. Davis, Kaylah J. Holmes and Eric Narbo as well as second-year law student Naryan "Ryan" C. Parimi finished in first place. Narbo was selected as Best Advocate and the team was coached by alumni Jonathan (J.D.’16) and Whitney (J.D.’15) Stuart. A total of 64 teams competed in this national mock trial tournament.
