The teams in the 2025 Jenkins Honors Moot Court Competition have distinguished themselves in their excellent advocacy. Many thanks to John Caucutt and Daniel Underwood and the Marquette Moot Court Association for organizing the competition well. We appreciate all the judges who grade briefs and come to the Law School to hear the oral arguments; we could not host this competition without their assistance. The following teams advanced to the quarterfinal round: Team 9 – Sydney Kojis and Mikayla Collins Team 10 – Elizabeth Hansen and Rachel Sweet Team 19 – Ava Mares and George Certalic Team 28 – Reese Gee and Anna Pyle Team 36 – Mario Hernandez and Isabella Gonzalez Team 40 – Isabella Barnard and Ananda Deacon Team 41 – William Welder and Aaron Steines Team 51 – Connor Reed and Suzy DeGuire The competition was especially fierce at the quarterfinal and semifinal rounds.
