The loss meant they would have to work their way through the loser’s bracket in order to advance into the grand final round. 

Falling into the bracket as the underdogs, CSUDH Esport’s prevailed and swept through the loser’s bracket and found themselves into the grand final where they’d face St. Mary’s Privateers and beat them three rounds to one and claim their Championship standing for this tournament. 

With this first-ever championship around their waist, CSUDH Esports make their presence known.
