UNC Charlotte Mock Trial Makes History - and We’re Not Done Yet!

November 03, 2025

The UNC Charlotte Mock Trial Program is off to an incredible start this season - and it’s all thanks to your support!

With over 50 students participating, this is our largest team in program history! In just the first few tournaments, our students have already made their mark.

After a strong showing at William & Mary, where A Team Co-Captain Wyatt Smith was named Top Witness, our program sent three teams to the Davidson College Wildcat Classic Invitational; another record-breaking milestone.

For the first time evertwo of our teams placed at the same tournament:
???? A Team finished undefeated and took first place!
???? B Team earned third place (tied for second overall!)

Individual honors were awarded to:

  • Wyatt Smith (A) – Best Witness (tied for top overall)
  • Ethan Harris (B) – Best Witness and Best Attorney (a rare double honor)
  • Ryan Sterling (D) – Best Witness
  • Karen Czapowski (A) – Second-highest scoring attorney overall

Your generosity makes these successes possible. Because of you, our students can continue competing, growing, and representing UNC Charlotte with pride.

With only 4 days left in our crowdfunding campaign, we’re stretching our goal and need your help to finish strong!

???? Please share crowdfund.charlotte.edu/MockTrial on social media.
???? Encourage friends, family, and Alumni friends to give or share our story!

Dear supporters,

Your generosity has powered an incredible start to the semester - both in the courtroom and in our community!

A few weeks ago, our team volunteered at UNC Charlotte’s International Festival, helping clean up around Halton Arena and connecting with students from across the globe.


Then last week, we competed at William & Mary’s Colonial Classic Invitational, where we faced the third-toughest schedule in the tournament - and Wyatt Smith was named the top-ranked witness of the competition!


Your gifts make experiences like these possible - from travel and competition fees to opportunities that strengthen our skills and friendships.

Please share our crowdfunding page with friends and your networks to help us reach our goals! The link is crowdfund.charlotte.edu/MockTrial

Every share brings us closer to our goal and helps future lawyers and leaders find their voice!

Thank you for believing in us,
Charlotte Mock Trial
