Highlands Q3 eSport was a super “smash” hit this year! 7 teams with over a hundred competitors produced 7 champions who all fought for the Super Smash Championship Belt along with a $50 GameStop gift card and 250 spirit points. Everyone played their favorite characters and battled at the highest level! The Student Council Room was lit every lunch period for an entire week with players competing hard in Super Smash Bros and showing off their skills. All participants fought as well as they could but in the end, the final day brought us the Championship Round with all 7 Team Champions! The lights were bright, the sounds loud - man, this tournament was intense! It all came down to a 1v1… Trey from Team Hui Lokahi versus Caleb from Team Laule’a. 7th vs. 8th Grade. They both fought extremely hard but in the end there could only be one winner and that winner was Trey from Hui Lokahi! Congratulations, Trey, the 2024 Super Smash School Champion!!!
