The IMS Gamer Squad has been in full swing with a Super Smash Brothers Ultimate tournament! We had 17 students participating in 4 rounds of matches. Each student picked a character to play, and each match was a best two out of three battle. Students got to pick their own maps to battle on, and each battle was a 3 stock battle.
Our top two players were Maverick Durden and Andriy Tsirkot, with Maverick being our 1st place champion! Both players also got a chance to play against the Chief of Police for the city of Independence. In the end, Maverick still came out on top!
Indy Family First Night is Wednesday, March 8! After 5 p.m., no homework assigned, no studying for tests, no athletic practices, no club meetings...students and staff are encouraged to only focus on connecting with their families!
