Over the last week, Wisconsin football premiered its first-ever esports tournament on team social media featuring several Badgers including Faion Hicks, Logan Bruss, Jake Ferguson and Kendric Pryor. The eight players competed in the game Rocket League in a knockout-style tournament.

On Thursday, the Badgers released the tournament’s championship game and senior offensive tackle Logan Bruss dominated senior cornerback Faion Hicks 6-0 to take the championship. Bruss defeated junior defensive tackle Keeanu Benton 5-2 in the tournament’s opening round and narrowly edged out senior tight end Jake Ferguson 4-3 in the semifinals.
It is no surprise to see the Wisconsin offensive linemen dominating, and it will be exciting to see if Logan Bruss can hold his crown in future tournaments.
THE CHAMP IS HERE!
