Stetson seriously works it at first competition of year

The fall competition season has officially begun. Two teams from Stetson University College of Law finished first and second at the E. Earle Zehmer Workers' Compensation Moot Court Competition, hosted by the Florida Workers' Compensation Institute. Florida Coastal School of Law and Florida State University College of Law were semi-finalists at the 14-team tournament, which took place in Orlando August 16-17. Although the competition is in its twentieth year, this is is the first time it was open to non-Florida law schools.

Florida Coastal took top brief honors. The Best Advocate Award was a tie between Jeremy Paul from Florida Coastal and Wilbert Vancol of Florida A&M University College of Law.

Tip of the hat to Todd Bruno at LSU for bringing this competition to my attention.
