They finished second in their group, only losing to their rivals at SOCA and ending with an impressive 7 goal differential.


MSI 05G Green also competed, winning their second game in a three-game weekend.

Herndon’s 06G Lightning Black had the best weekend of any team in the program, going 3-0 and shutting out every opponent. This was their first year in the showcase-style tournament.
