The event is part of the larger Rally Cry Rocket League Collegiate Series. Closed qualifiers span from February 10th to March 3rd. Playoffs are scheduled for March 9-10, with the grand championship on March 16th. Boise State’s triumph in Qualifier #2 propels them one step closer to the ultimate prize, with the championship boasting a substantial $6,000 prize pool.
The Broncos have a little under a month to prepare. Boise State Rocket League already has a busy spring, with matches in NACE and CRL. The Rally Cry series ads yet another opportunity for the Broncos to make their name known as a top collegiate team in the nation. Rally Cry is also hosting tournaments in Counter-Strike 2, Madden, Street Fighter, Tekken, and Guilty Gear Strive.
