Third-year law student Zachary Kelsay, of Independence, Missouri, and first-year law student Emily Depew, of Neodesha, defeated Columbia Law School in the final round of the virtual competition Feb. 27. Austyn Caisse won the second-place award for Best Spoken Advocate, and Depew won the third-place award for Best Spoken Advocate.
“Competing in NNALSA would have been impossible without the support of the KU Law community,” Depew said. “We are incredibly thankful to our coaches, teammates and faculty who spent endless hours teaching us about Indian law and judging practice rounds. Preparing and participating in the competition was intellectually challenging and rewarding.”
