MIDWAY, Ky. - After opening with three straight wins, the Midway Call of Duty Esports team was eliminated with consecutive losses in the double-elimination CCL Midwest Regional Playoffs Saturday.
The Eagles,
who went 2-0 on the opening night of competition Friday, advanced again with a 3-0 forfeit win over the University of Cincinatti Saturday afternoon. Midway was then sent to the loser's bracket following a 3-0 loss to Northwood (Mich.).
Sent to the elimination round against a Southern Illinois Edwardsville team they defeated Friday night, the Eagles ran out of gas in the rematch, losing 3-1.
Call of Duty,
which won a Parfly Division Championship in the fall, will hope to earn an at-large bid into the national tournament in the coming weeks.
