ELITE Gaming staff teamed up with Syracuse City School District coaches to bring the SCSD Super Smash Bros. team to Herkimer Community College for an exciting day of esports and education. Students from Syracuse joined high school players from across the region to compete in a high-energy Super Smash Bros. tournament that showcased skill, teamwork, and school pride.
Beyond the matches, students had the chance to explore Herkimer’s campus with guided tours through residence halls, dining facilities, academic buildings, and more — offering a firsthand look at college life. The event was a perfect blend of competitive gaming and college readiness, providing students with valuable exposure to both their passions and their futures.
