On Saturday morning (9/17), LPS Central eSports Gaming hosted 15 players for Rocket League, Fortnite, and Halo! We won 10 out of our 12 video game matches!  CMS RocketLeague varsity had a good rotation, scored ceiling shots, and shut out two city's teams with our 7-0 and 9-0 matches! Our eSports kids had so much fun making new friends, enjoying breakfast and pizza together. Yet, during one match, Watoga's Fortnite team was down a player! CMS offered to play 3v3 to be fair, but Watoga's 3 team had just shut out another city's Fortnite team 4-0.. so they were feeling pretty ready to take out CMS, yet Watoga feel short in the last match when CMS took the 3-2 win!  CMS won ALL of their Halo matches: Harmony (CTF 2-1; Slayer 50-15), Weatherford (CTF 3-0; Slayer 50-42), Indiahoma (CTF 1-0; Slayer 50-21), Davis (FF). The CMS Team 1 vs Weatherford Halo:Slayer match was VERY close for the whole time, back and forth with tags, until the end: just don't die, be careful, safe creeping. Great communication also came through with "Halo: Capture the Flag" for CMS Team 2 vs Indiahoma. Both dueling teams kept the flag's away from the base, so no scores for a long time. CMS team members kept talking about placement, location, and strategies to take a full sweep for the day!  It's a great day to be a Central eSports Cougar! 🐆 🎮
