Everyone in the county is talking about it! https://www.vcstar.com/story/news/local/2024/02/29/trinity-pacific-christian-sweeps-ventura-county-mock-trial-finals/72750921007/
This week Trinity was crowned the mock trial county champions for both high school and middle school for the second year in a row! Out of 28 teams, our varsity won the high school tournament while the JV team came in at an impressive third place. The TPCS middle school team placed first out of 14 teams in their competition. In addition to taking the title for Trinity Pacific Christian School, our students earned a plethora of individual awards (see below).
Throughout the competition, our students displayed excellent mock trial skills as well sportsmanship and kindness to each other and their competitors. We are so proud of all of them! A big thank you to all of our devoted coaches who make this possible.
The TPCS mock trial team will move on to compete in the State Championship in March.
