We lost the competition, but got some consolation prizes. We won 2nd Place for Best Brief and I got 3rd Place for Best Oralist (I know that sounds funny) and Best Overall Competitor (out of 56, so that makes me the Highlander of the competition). Both final teams get to compete in the regional competition in Boston in March. It was a really amazing experience. We argued before Judge Randall Rader from the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, Judge Edward Damich from the US Court of Federal Claims, and Dean John Whealan from the law school.
It was pretty cool.
If you want to see what we were arguing about, the problem is available here.
PS: If you didn't, you really ought to click on the Highlander link above, it's jaw-droppingly amazing.

Way to go best Highlander Oralist! And I didn't get too far through what you were arguing about but like the bow-tied Mr. Whelan's picture.
Congratulations! That's a cool plaque. I used to love the show Highlander when I was a kid.
Congrats! That Highlander link was weird.
Holy impressive, Jordan! You did us all proud (not that you did it for any of us, but you know).
hi rose. hehe.
Adrian Paul is SO DREAMY! Especially when he's enduring the quickening. Did you endure the bitter-sweet power of the quickening when you became a Highlander Oralist? That would've been cool to see. (Congrats on the winnings, btw! Very impressive.)
