Texas Tech University School of Law won the second annual National Latino/a Law Student Association Moot Court Competition, held September 24-25 in Chicago at NLLSA's yearly convention. Columbia Law School finished second at the 12-team tournament. Yale Law School was credited as the third-place team; a second team from Columbia was the other semi-finalist.
Texas Tech also won the Best Petitioner's Brief award, with Chicago-Kent College of Law claiming the Best Respondent's Brief. Andrea Contreras of Columbia's semi-finalist team took home the plaque for Best Oralist of the preliminary rounds, and Sam Webb of Texas Tech won Best Oralist of the Final Round.
No definitive word yet on the location of NLSSA's conference next year, but sources tell me it's between New Haven, Connecticut and Austin, Texas.
