Jennifer Bowen, Keslie Cooper and Thomas Kessinger represented the Stegner Center at the National Environmental Law Moot Court Competition at Pace Law School. The Pace team was coached by University of Utah alumnus Ben Machlis, who is currently practicing environmental law at Dorsey and Whitney.
Gordon Rowe and Sydney Sell, coached by University of Utah alumnus Jennifer Horne, who is currently practicing litigation and environmental law at Holland and Hart, represented the Stegner Center at the National Energy and Sustainability Moot Court Competition at West Virginia University College of Law. They were one of just four teams in the competition to advance to the semi-final round, where they narrowly lost to a team from Pace University.
