The Electric Tigers E-sports team took a victory yesterday against Belding High School for their last game of the Super Smash Brothers season. The Tigers, (4-4) ended their season in 76th place out of over 200 teams, but narrowly missed the playoffs. The Electric Tigers’ Rocket League team will be in action on Thursday teams for their final game of the regular season, hosting Byron Center High School. The Tigers have a 4-3 record in Rocket League and are currently in 31st place out of 108 teams in Michigan, with a playoff berth in the balance of the outcome of Thursday’s match. Lastly, our partnership with the Pied Piper school in Alpena has been very successful with numerous Alcona players pitching in to play Mario Kart in the Unified League. Our thanks to Adalai Liebler, Darren Boyat, Geni Kirk and Abel Birk for making that program work this spring for the youth at Pied Piper. #alconatigers #tigerpride #esports
