BEMIDJI — There are times when a team’s victory necessitates public recognition.

Such was the case for the Bemidji High School Mock Trial team, whose seventh-place finish at the Minnesota Mock Trial State Tournament led to a celebratory reception on Thursday at the Beltrami County Judicial Center.
