Academy Forensics Program
The Academy’s Forensics program has some exciting news to share! Hosted at the Tulsa County Courthouse by District Judge Daman Cantrell, The MLK Day Chapelle Cup kicks off the Mock Trial competition season in Oklahoma every year. The Varsity and JV teams traveled to Tulsa to compete in the Chapelle Cup, which entailed 3 back-to-back trials in real courtrooms, judged by actual judges and practicing attorneys. The Academy’s Varsity team finished the day undefeated, beating Ponca City, Broken Arrow, and Stillwater and winning the 1st place trophy! Varsity members Jack Miller and George Leydorf won Best Witness and Best Attorney, respectively, for every trial. We are so proud of our Griffins and are looking forward to following their progress in the OBA Mock Trial State Tournament next month!
