Kudos:

Kudos to all of our volunteers who made Week Zero possible! There was so much work put into this event, and 32 teams comprising over 1000 people got to experience a great day of practice and excitement. Also bonus Kudos to Loyce for MCing a match; great way to step out of your comfort zone!

That’s all for this weekly update. Thanks to everyone who helps our team come together and accomplish our goals!
