Humber Esports Team Wins Tournament

The Humber Call of Duty team won Tespa’s Varsity Call of Duty Invitational Tournament with a $25,000 USD prize pool on July 14. They took home a total of $17,000 CAD in scholarship money and $450+ CAD in PC peripherals and gear for each player.

Call of Duty (COD) is a first-person shooter video game set in a war environment. Competitive COD consists of two teams in a five versus five format with game modes being hardpoint, domination, and search and destroy.

The tournament was a varsity invitational tournament. There were 16 schools across the USA and Canada who were invited to participate while only two teams were from Canada.

Humber COD was invited by Tespa to participate since they placed first in their College Call of Duty (CCL) regular season group. Additionally, they ended the CCL season in third place.

Humber COD were the CCL champions in 2019. They faced the 2020 CCL champions Texas A&M Maroon in the grand finals and secured a Tespa championship title. The students who represented Humber College and participated in the tournament were:

Jacob "GOATunes" Lane – Team Captain
Abas "Kush-point" Hassan – Player
Eric "iiFigure-" Kovacs – Player
Dylan "Crozier12_" Crozier – Player
Steven "DmG_Stevey" Moclair – Player

Humber COD coach Dante "Checko" Ceccarelli recieves an honourable mention for his passion, dedication and support towards the team.

Humber COD showed that they are champions in their own right. This is a huge achievement for the COD team, Humber Esports and Humber College.
