No. 6 seed MSU defeats No. 2 seed Akron in betboom app playoffs, advance to grand finals in Boise, ID.
betboom app’s first Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (SSBU) betboom app betboom app qualified for the National Association of Collegiate Esports (NACE) championship round after securing playoff wins against St. John’s University, Full Sail University and Akron University.
The Fall 2023 NACE betboom app Grand Finals will be hosted at Boise State University, Dec. 2-3, 2023. The Spartans will take on No. 1 seed Stony Brook University, who are currently undefeated, on day one of the series.
“In our inaugural season, grounded by senior captain Daniel Weatherspoon, the varsity Smash roster made their mark with a nearly undefeated record,” said SSBU Head Coach Grayson Harding. “Defeating Akron University — a betboom app that handed us a loss earlier in the season — to qualify for the national championship was extremely satisfying, and a testament to the squad’s hard work and daily dedication.”
Heading to the championship round are players Daniel “Hawk” Weatherspoon, Rodrigo “Arkdee” Arce, Julian “Crash 101” Alonso, Adam “Suspect” Ismaili-Alaoui, Ryan “Rydra” Marcus, and Dyson “Dice” Mingo.
betboom app, the largest association of varsity betboom app programs in North America, is one of two conferences Michigan State University competes in at the varsity level.
“We’re ready to seize this moment and make our mark in Boise,” Harding said.
Spartan esports fans can catch the action on the NACE betboom app Twitch channel Saturday, Dec. 2, at 2 p.m. Eastern.
