The Buffalo Wild Wings Tailgate Zone was bustling all day long as thousands of athletes walked back and forth between the field and their tents. Eclipse Creative Home Court had 27 companies offering samples, prizes and discounts.
On the field, we had close competitions in all divisions. Safelite continued it's hot streak in DI dominance, winning its fifth straight Cup. Chipotle returned to the top of the DII podium. The Columbus Blue Jackets won DIII, breaking their odd year winning streak. Sports Imports came out on top in DIV, for back to back championships.
Congratulations to all the champions! Go here to see every winner since 2018.
