Our ESports Program has a play in game tonight for the opportunity to go to the IHSEA State Finals in Overwatch. The league mistakenly notified us that we had advanced to the Elite 8 over the weekend but we were informed yesterday that we have to win a "play in game" tonight. The game will be streamed live on our opponent's youtube page and the action begins at 5:00 tonight.
