Other CA awards from Regionals included a Colorado Bar Association “Professionalism Award” given to CA’ s “C Team,” an award for Best Attorney to CA’s SunHee Seo, and awards for Best Witness to CA’s Eric Bear and Katie Fink.
The CA faculty sponsor of the program is Upper School history teacher Luis Terrazas.
