San Marin eNews - San Marin's Mock Trial Team, led by volunteer adviser, Attorney Chris Sheron, finished the 2014 Competition on Saturday, but the final standings were not yet available at press time.  Over consecutive Saturdays, the Mustangs competed in 4 murder trials in the case of People vs. Rae Concha, winning against Branson and Redwood, but falling to Marin Catholic and 18-time defending Champion Tamalpais by very narrow margins.
