William Cullen Bryant High School Reaches Mock Trial Quarter Finals!
Congratulations to the William Cullen Bryant team on reaching the quarter finals at the 2026 New York City Mock Trial competition, their best performance in a mock trial competition yet. This achievement is extremely meaningful for this Queens school, where many students come from first- and second-generation immigrant families. Competing against more than 100 schools across the five boroughs, including many high-powered and high-resourced private schools, this result and the team’s progress is a testament to both the students’ talent and the dedication of the Quinn Emanuel volunteer coaches who have supported this program for two decades.
Thanks to our coaching team:
Program Leaders: Sascha Rand, Nicolas Siebert
Coaches: Abraham Moussako, Alicia Lai, Amber Aspinall, Chineze Osakwe, Grant Strudwick, Josh Burd, Kevin Janus, Laura Santos-Bishop, Miriam Bial, and Teodora Pasca
Administrative Support: Katherine Wozniak
