This series was a tale of two halves. IC dominated the opening two games and looked poised to close out a convincing win. In Game 3, Carthage shifted players between roles and found success with a composition designed to counter their dive. The Blue Boys struggled to adapt and couldn't regain their footing for the rest of the series.
Brayden Highley earned MVP honors for his strong play throughout the match. He was especially impactful in our two map wins, setting the pace and driving the team's success.
