"It was an honor and very rewarding to serve as a scoring judge in the Arkansas High School Mock Trial State Tournament," Tonya said of her experience. "It was very obvious that these young adults were dedicated and had worked very hard to prepare for the presentation of their cases. I saw some amazing legal talent!"
