 The Caddo Mills High School Mock Trial team recently competed in Dallas at the Regional Championships. The competition was held at the Dallas County Courthouse and was sponsored by Region 10. The team competes three different times during the day against other schools. They must be able to present a case from both the plaintiff and defendant points of view. They must be thoroughly prepared.
The student’s first round was against AAAAA Richardson Pearce. The students were nervous at first but held their own against tough competition. They gained valuable experience to be used for later rounds. The team competed against district rival Irving North Hills in the second round. They clearly won this competition as they gained more and more confidence throughout the trial. Their third round in the afternoon was against
Dallas Christian High School.
Team members included attorneys Ashley Davidson, Will White, and Austin Davidson. Witnesses the for the competition included Emily Hammack, Chelsea Holcomb, Kaitlyn Coker, Natalie Shaddox, and Brad Lutrick. This years coach and sponsor is Caddo Mills High School teacher and Hunt County Attorney Jerry Card.
