Every fall, UMBC takes part in "invitationals," tournaments hosted by other mock trial programs. These differ from the big tournaments in the spring semester (Regionals, ORCS, and Nationals) because they are not directly sponsored by the American Mock Trial Association (AMTA) and do not impact a team's success in the AMTA playoffs. 

Nonetheless, invitationals are an excellent preparation for the playoff tournaments and doing well in the fall is a sign of prestige for a program. 
Despite success at Regionals the previous two season, earning bid to ORCS in 2015 and 2016, UMBC Mock Trial never had as strong a fall semester as this year. 

For the first time in the Program's history, a team "placed" at a fall invitational tournament, with the A Team earning 4th place at Drexel University's Market Street Invitational. The B Team would add to this by finishing 3rd at Elizabethtown College's Blue Jay Invitational. The A Team rounded out the autumnal victories with a 5th place finish at Temple University's Hooter Invitational.

Below you will find a tournament by tournament break down of how well the teams did and who won individual awards (spoiler alert, a lot UMBC competitors won awards this fall!).

Keep watching this space as we will continue bringing you exciting UMBC Mock Trial news into the New Year!

Good Evening Everyone!

As most of you are already aware, tonight was the UMBC Mock Trial elections for the 2013-14 executive board. I would like to personally congratulate Mikey, Travis, Kyle, and Cheyenne for your newly earned positions of leadership. It's really encouraging to see that we have some returning leadership as well as some new leadership!

I have updated the "Members" section of the UMBC Mock Trial "myUMBC Group" to reflect the newly selected "officer" roles.

Thank you all so much for a great year. It was truly a wonderful experience to serve on the executive board for the past two years. I am happy beyond words to welcome such a capable and motivated group of members to lead the UMBC Mock Trial team to continued success in the next academic year.

I hope you are all enjoying the last few days of summer!! Be sure to be on the lookout for an e-mail from me with all of the information regarding auditions. The executive board is planning to finalize all of the details on Monday evening so that I can get an e-mail out to the team on Tuesday before all of the first-day madness begins!

I hope you have all been reading through the case and getting an idea of what roles you will be interested in playing! You should also begin to look through the Midlands Rules of Evidence posted in the documents section, particularly if you plan on auditioning to be an attorney.

Remember that you can always e-mail me (bozmac1@umbc.edu) if you have any questions about the case or anything else.

~Caitlin, VP
