Today is a special day for our team because it’s the birthday of our amazing senior and co-captain!! 🥳🎁 Please help us in wishing Yasmin the happiest of birthdays.

Since Day 1, Yasmin has been an integral part of this team. Admittedly, there are too many stories and things we could share about her in one quick post, so in short, she has managed to make all of us better individuals with her words of encouragement, steady presence, constant wisdom and unmatchable attitude ✨ Over the past few years, we’ve had the opportunity to see her grow as a competitor, as a student here at UNO, as a friend, and as a superstar in and out of forensics. Yasmin is such a beautiful person, inside and out, so thank you for choosing us to be your team. You are the best teammate, jokester, family member, supporter, and advocate. We’re so proud to see all that she has accomplished, and we cannot wait to see all that she does for her final year of undergrad. 💛☀️

We hope you have an amazing birthday today, Yasmin!! 🎉🎁

That’s a wrap on Mavforensics season 25-26! 🎉✨

The year where the team kept fitting into the same elevator! The year of incredible growth and leadership for everyone, but especially from the junior class. 🖤❤️ A year filled with laughs, learning, unforgettable experiences and amazing accomplishments with a team full of WONDERFUL humans we are so beyond proud of.

Thank you to this stellar squad. Each of you make Mavforensics a safe and special place to be and we can’t wait to do it again next year! 🥳🤘🏼

Check out the solutions packets our Mavs created this year and join us TONIGHT on Zoom for a screening of Greener Pastures, the documentary featured in Colin’s persuasive speech this year. Screening information for 05/22/26 can be found on the last slide. The forensics season may be over, but the advocacy isn’t!

We are so proud of each Mav’s speech event created this season and grateful for this platform that provides the space & inspiration to share on issues we care deeply about.

GO MAVS! 🤘🏼

Join us in wishing a Happy Birthday to THE MAK RUFFING!!! 🎉🎂 Oh my gosh the ways in which we love Mak are truly infinite.

Outside of school, work, and personal projects, Mak helps run the social media pages (except for this post of course 😉), but their role is so much more than that! Mak is a truly incredible friend, family member, and teammate. Mak brings a warm energy to Mavforensics that makes everyone feel welcomed and appreciated. And believe us, our admiration is as grand as Mak’s love for fine arts. Whether it’s gushing about art or musicals, Mak has focused on topics important to them and poured their heart into every performance they’ve given. Mak’s passion inspires everyone on the team!

There aren’t enough amazing things to say about this human and we are so grateful Mak is such a special and important part our team. Mak, we hope you have the best birthday yet and please know how much you are loved and valued!!! 🥳💜 Have a great day!

While our season may now be over, the celebrations certainly aren’t! Please join us in wishing Madelyn a happy birthday!! 🎁🎉

Madelyn has been such an amazing addition to the team’s coaching staff this season, and there are not enough words for us to describe how kind, thoughtful, and brilliant she is. She’s constantly bringing in new ideas for events, helping the team explore and navigate topics or assisting them with blocking. She’s been a wonderful addition to our social media team, designing beautiful graphics and coming up with fun posts and stories. Madelyn truly is one of the friendliest faces that you can see in the team room, or even just walking down the hall. We are all so grateful for everything you do for the team, so thank you for choosing to make UNO and MavForensics a part of your life’s journey.

Have a wonderful day today, Happy Birthday Madelyn!! 🥳

Colin placed 6th in the Nation at the 152nd IOA!!!

We are so proud of Colin for his hard work, advocacy, and dedication to this activity! Thank you to IOA 206 for an incredible tournament and for the UF Speech and Debate Team for being the best hosts. Your intentionality and thoughtfulness all weekend did not go unnoticed and was very appreciated. We have fallen in LOVE with Gainesville and doing the Gator Chomp is our new favorite thing 🧡💙

Interstate Oratory is the oldest public speaking competition on the continent - this year marking 152 years of collegiate forensics excellence. We had a wonderful weekend exploring Gainesville and enjoying every minute of IOA 2026!

Here are some highlights from our trip:

We are so thankful to this tournament for its commitment to accessible and amazing forensics competition and all the quality opportunities it provides for practice, learning, development, and memory making. Thank you so much to our friends at OATS Forensics, the SMSU Speech Team, and Outspoken Culture for another wonderful year!! ❤️🖤
