Overwatch
The Overwatch team had a strange matchup this week. They had two second-chance matchups on Saturday which neither team showed up. Giving Davenport two wins by forfeit, but pretty much "icing" the team for the tough matchups on Sunday. Though they put up an impressive fight, the end result had them losing their second day matchups against both the University of Maryland and Becker College.
The record for the week was 2-2. The team now has its sights set on competing in the Western Michigan Invitational for all Michigan teams.

Apex Legends
The Apex Legends team put up another impressive week in Indy Gaming League on Friday, putting up an impressive 94 points over three matches, their highest score yet. With just a few weeks left until playoffs, it looks Davenport will hold their third place position for the rest of the regular season.
Apex Legends also competed in the College Apex Blitz III over the weekend, out of 50 different college teams that entered the competition Davenport placed 24th. The team hopes to place much better in their next matchup.

Rocket League
The Panthers Rocket League had an impressive comeback going 3-1 this week. Starting off with NACE on Monday, Panthers played the CASC Vikings and got the win 3-1. Thursday, the Panthers fell to UT Dallas 3-2. The Panthers finished at a 5-5 record heading into the playoffs for NACE.
On Tuesday for IGL, the Panthers played Triangle Inequ Esports and won 3-1. This is the first win of Indy Gaming League and moves the Panthers to 1-3 on the season. Finally, the Panthers squared off against Central Michigan both teams looking for the first win. Davenport pulled away with a sweep (3-0) and goes 1-1 in CSL. The Panthers Rocket League team has playoffs for NACE starting October 28th and will matchup again against the CASC Vikings in round one.
