Under the coaching of Haub Law Alumnus, Dan Masi 鈥14, two pairs of students consisting of Marc Bisogno (3L) and Mike Minoli (2L), and Maddie Law (2L) and Andrew Leffler (3L) performed admirably in the negotiation rounds on Day 1, and advanced to Day 2, where they had 12 hours to prepare for the quarter-finals round.

Both teams earned widespread recognition for their performance.

The Villanova Baseball Filing Day Competition is a simulated exercise intended to mimic negotiations between MLB Players Association (MLBPA) player agents and MLB club executives before the salary arbitration Exchange Date between the MLB Labor Relations Department and the MLBPA as governed by Major League Baseball's Basic Agreement. Participants build oral advocacy and negotiation skills while handling baseball statistics and player valuation information in order to come to resolution with opposing counsel.
