The Northport High School mock trial team – coached by Mark E. Goidell and David Lazer – will advance to the New York State Mock Trial Championship on May 23-25 after successfully defending its 2019 Suffolk County championship title.
Northport was ready to defend its crown last year, but the competition was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year, the team competed remotely for several weeks before repeating as Suffolk County champs. They will be one of eight teams moving on to the state championship.
