William & Mary gets jiggy with it at Charleston

William & Mary Law School won the Charleston School of Law National Moot Court Competition, held February 4-5. Florida State University College of Law finished second in the 16-team tournament. Mercer University School of Law and Seton Hall University School of Law were the semifinalists.

Mercer and Seton Hall also took home the two Best Brief awards -- Mercer on the Petitioner side, and Seton Hall for the Respondent. John Phillips of Mercer was the tournament's Best Oralist in the preliminary rounds, with William & Mary's Richard Clausi earning Best Oralist recognition in the final round.

Florida State, clearly doing something right in the professionalism department, repeated in its bid to win the much-coveted "Professionalism Award." Hard to say which it will be more proud of -- that, or the second-place finish???
