Suit Up for the Future High School Summer Legal Institute and Internship Program
The three-week program will be held at the Louisiana Bar Center and is scheduled on June 14, 2021 – July 2, 2021. Students who complete the program will be eligible for a stipend of up to $250.00! Students must provide their own transportation to the program.
The three-week program will be held at the Louisiana Bar Center and is scheduled on June 14, 2021 – July 2, 2021. Students who complete the program will be eligible for a stipend of up to $250.00! Students must provide their own transportation to the program. Students have the option of paying a residential housing fee if housing is needed (adult chaperone required). The estimated housing cost for three-weeks is $1,080 and approximately $60 per day. Please contact Cara Traczek at catracze@loyno.edu for more information.
Over the course of the three-week program, students will be introduced to lawyers, legal documents, and the legal system, all designed to assist them in pondering one important question, “Do I really want to be a lawyer?”
Inside the “Suit Up classroom,” students will experience the Socratic teaching method and gain exposure to specified law school courses, including, criminal law and legal research and writing. Students will also receive a mock trial problem, which will serve as the basis for the legal writing assignment and oral argument the students will present to a panel of judges at the end of the program.
In a second component of the “Suit Up classroom,” students will be provided with advice and substantive information from guest speakers, and receive instruction in creating competitive resumes, preparing for the Law School Admission Test (LSAT), professionalism, ethics, and workplace etiquette and attire. The time inside the classroom will provide students with ample time to work as a group on assignments and seek feedback from various legal mentors throughout the course.
A third facet of the course will allow Suit Up participants to step outside the classroom and see first-hand what it means to be a “lawyer.” The attorney shadowing is designed to provide students with the following experiences: (1) a tour of the law firm/agency, including all departments, so that students gain an understanding of all of the support staff that comprise a law firm/agency; (2) the opportunity to join the attorney on outings (such as depositions, hearings, and trials); (3) lunch with the attorney; and (4) mentoring and support on the oral argument and supporting legal memorandum being developed by the student. Students will also prepare a list of questions to ask attorneys whom they shadow so that the student gains an appreciation of the day-to-day schedule of an attorney, as well as the role that lawyers play in society and in the administration of justice. *Students must have transportation to and from the shadowing assignment.
Finally, the Suit Up students will attend several field trips. The students will tour two area law schools, the Louisiana Supreme Court, the Court museum, and federal court buildings. During the tours, students will hear from several guest speakers and may have the opportunity to view proceedings at several state and federal courts.
Interested students should visit:
There is an online application process. Students will be requested to provide: a copy of their last Report Card or Progress Report (an official transcript is not required); one letter of recommendation from a teacher, counselor, minister, or any individual who can attest to the student’s character; and a short essay of 500 words or less on the importance of the American legal system and the role it plays in developing and maintaining our society.

No. 5 Southern Lab comes up with big plays against Opelousas Catholic
The No. 5-seeded Southern Lab Kittens used big plays on offense and forced four fumbles on a soggy night in A.W. Mumford Stadium to defeat No. 12-seeded Opelousas Catholic Vikings 34-14 in the first round of the Division IV select playoffs. By Joh Beck (Link to Article)

The No. 5-seeded Southern Lab Kittens used big plays on offense and forced four fumbles on a soggy night in A.W. Mumford Stadium to defeat No. 12-seeded Opelousas Catholic Vikings 34-14 in the first round of the Division IV select playoffs.
The Kittens imposed their will in the second half, using a bruising rushing attack to set up the play-action pass. Southern Lab junior quarterback Angelo Izzard completed 4 of 7 passes for 132 yards and three TDs, adding 44 yards on the ground.
Senior running back Lutrell Pruitt had 14 carries for 84 yards and one TD along with two catches for 101 yards and two TDs. Opelousas Catholic senior quarterback Drake Guidry was 12 of 31 for 115 yards and one TD. Senior receiver Keon Coleman had four catches for 41 yards and one TD.
The Kittens (4-3) got off to a hot start on offense in the first quarter with junior running back Shawn Bates breaking a run to the right sideline and speeding past the Vikings defensive backs for a 76-yard score to tie the score at 7-7 with 8:12 to go in the first quarter. Southern Lab struck again quickly as Izzard hit sophomore receiver Carl Williams streaking down the middle of the field for a 31-yard TD pass.
The Vikings (3-4) struggled protecting the middle of the field throughout the game, as Izzard would later find Pruitt on TD passes of 68 and 31 yards, both on routes running down the seam.
Southern Lab got the 68-yard TD pass with 2:32 to go in the third quarter and forced an Opelousas Catholic fumble on their ensuing drive, returning it all the way to the 2-yard line where Pruitt punched it in to give the Kittens a 27-7 lead and sealing the victory.
After scoring on their first drive in the game, the Vikings struggled to find a rhythm on offense, in large part because of drops and failing to protect the football in wet conditions.
While he only completed four passes, Izzard protected the ball and came up big when the Kittens needed it most. On multiple drives Izzard scrambled on third down to keep drives alive and was accurate on all of his throws only missing his receivers because of drops. In a game where both teams combined for seven fumbles, Izzard managed the game well and handled multiple high and low snaps from his center on shotgun plays.
The Kittens could’ve put the game far out of reach early had it not been for multiple holding calls that negated big gains on the ground. Southern Lab had runs of 106 total yards called back in the first and second quarters, and the majority of them would’ve put them in the red zone.
The Kittens had 13 penalties for 96 yards, something that the Kittens will need to improve in their next game. Guidry accounted for three of the four fumbles lost by the Vikings, all three coming on sacks.
