Regent University School of Law made good this past weekend on its bid for back-to-back wins at the 38th Annual William B. Spong Moot Court Tournament at William & Mary Law School. New York University School of Law finished second in the field of 23 teams. Seventeen schools competed.
NYU also won the Best Petitioner's Brief Award, while American University Washington College of Law won the counterpart award for the Respondent. Clint Claypole of The University of Oklahoma Law Center won Best Oralist.
Click here for full results; Regent's deserved horn tooting is here. My friend Brian Koppen must be smiling; Regent pats itself on the back for its semifinal win over South Texas College of Law, which the post author describes as "currently the top-ranked moot court program in the country." Of course, I'm unfamiliar with any ranking system other than Koppen's, whose 2008 rankings (which, for some reason, he hasn't yet "locked" -- remember, he operates on the calendar, and not academic, year) have South Texas sitting on an insurmountable lead over second-place UC Hastings College of the Law.
