Feb 24, 2025 | by Ildi Carlisle-Cummins
We are bursting with Puma Pride! Our Mock Trial team clinched the county championship at the courthouse last week, and will be headed to Los Angeles in a few weeks to represent Santa Cruz County at the state finals. The team's outstanding performance was even covered by KSBW news!
Congratulations to the hard-working, capable attorneys Story Cholden, Arie McNeil, Dylan Childs and Amber Caldwell (pictured above) on their dominating performance in the finals.
This year's team included Henry Solomon (co captain), Arie McNeil (co captain), Amber Caldwell, KK Htay, Dylan Childs, Anuskha Mistry, Zero Pabich, Sarah Stockmanns, Maya Laing, Olivia Chen, Ike Segnitz, Courtney Eldridge, Story Cholden, Maeve Kannely, Dani Mattson, Bodhi Partland, Leif McArthur and Daisy Harlan. The team received an award for best sportsmanship and Henry Solomon was named best prosecution attorney.
We are especially proud of our Mock Trial seniors (pictured below), who have put in years of work to push the team to this level of excellence.
We're rooting for you, Puma Mock Trial Team!
