Hillsdale JV had an opportunity to travel to Santa Barbara to practice against some top competition last weekend in Santa Barbara. We faced off against some good young talent from San Marcos and Lynbrook. Using People v. Klein, witnesses drew their roles out of a hat before the competition and both sides were allowed one surprise witness. Attorneys had to create their crosses on their feet without any preparation. We had a lot of fun and came back better mock trialers.
Hillsdale will be sending its first ever competitor, Allison Rulli, to Gladiator on July 12. She will be competing against the best in world. We have a great team that will be helping her get ready. If you're interested in scrimmaging , let us know (mspringman@smuhsd.org). Good luck Allison! Hillsdale completed a great 2019 season with both teams competing in the County final in Redwood City. Our Varsity team finished in second place in San Mateo County (out of 16) in a hard-fought final round with The Menlo School. Our JV team won its first San Mateo County Championship! Though we have a truly tremendous group of seniors whom we will miss, we have a great group coming back and are looking forward to winning County in 2020.
P.S. Watch this space for information on the First Annual Hillsdale Stop Watch Invitational, featuring the case of People v. Freeman -- coming June 8th. On October 27, the Hillsdale Varsity traveled to Sacramento for its first scrimmages of the year where they competed against some of the top teams in the state (Shasta, Moreau Catholic, and Sacramento Country Day). The next week the JV team traveled to Moreau Catholic to compete against their JV team. Though we know we have a lot of work to do, we also have a lot to build on. Most importantly, we had fun.
After a long, intense and very competitive tryout process, we have finally chosen our 2018-2019 team. Congratulations to our 19 new members who were chosen from the most talented field of candidates in years.
We're all very excited to get started! P.S. Guest bloggers welcome. Contact Coach Springman. |
