On June 9th, 35 players and several spectators gathered together to partake in a tournament of epic proportions! 7 teams, each uniquely designed of five individuals sought to be the top dodgeball team in ECC Students for the remainder of the year. And what was the prize? Nothing… but PRIDE!
It was truly a fun night to watch so many adults and students (and spectators) laugh and smile at the events taking place. There were expected victories, and there were major upsets! The suspense was high and the hilarity even higher! In all, we played 28 games in just over an hour with one team coming out victorious:
So let’s give a round of applause for their victory, and if you happen to see them around, congratulate them, for they are the reigning ECC Students Dodgeball Champions.
Other teams to partake in the evening:

THE NONES
THE DUCK, DUCK, CHUCKS
