ustin Young Lawyers Association leaders are excelling in finding ways to connect virtually, have fun together, and deepen relationships during this time. O n June 4, 2020, AYLA hosted a night of (remote) trivia. The questions were carefully curated and the competition fierce as the lawyer-teams valiantly resisted the temptation to Google the answers. (Alas, no ethics CLE could be awarded, even to those who succeeded in relying on

their collective memories alone.) Thanks to everyone who participated, and special thanks to the tireless efforts of David Floyd, who wrote the questions and served as emcee, and Sarah Harp, who organized the event and judged the teams’ submissions. Competitors included: • Tequila Mockingbird: Peter Strenkowski, Leila Melhem, Eric White, Ari Cuenin, and Kathleen Hunker • Quarantoneds: Ben Dower, Shana Horton, Ethan Ranis, and Francesca di Troia

• Pandemic! At the Disco: Rachael Jones , Johnathan Stone, Emily Morris, Jenna Malsbary, and Meghan Kempf • I Zoom Therefore I Drink: Jessica MacCarty

NNN AAAAAAAAA

• Matt is Alone: Matt Rappaport • Home Aloners: Brittani Miller and Caitlin Haney Johnston • Go Team Go: Josh Crowley, Lena Proft, Matthew AUSTINMyers, LAWYER AL AL and Caroline Hall Nelson
