Congratulations are in order for Timothy Daxton Pettus and Caleb Cole, two exceptional students of Morehouse College who have achieved remarkable national recognition in the field of undergraduate moot court.

Competing in a year that saw 560 teams from prestigious colleges and universities across the United States, Pettus and Cole led the Morehouse team to an extraordinary 3rd place national finish—placing them within the top 1% of teams nationwide.

A Rising National Powerhouse

Morehouse’s moot court program was previously ranked No. 5 in the country. With this impressive performance, the team is expected to move up in the national rankings to No. 2 or No. 3 once official standings are released.

The dedication, intellectual rigor, and poise demonstrated by Timothy and Caleb reflect not only their personal excellence but also the rising prominence of Morehouse College in the legal academic sphere.

The Judson Lyons Society proudly commends these young scholars for their discipline, vision, and excellence—hallmarks of Morehouse Men prepared to lead in law and justice.
