RESULTS
Here are the end results of Summer Slash IV
It was an experiment, not without its foibles and follies. But overall the first week of Southern California’s Summer Slash series was full of excitement, energy, and ferocity.
Week Two of Summer Slash brought a much tighter operation by a much more experienced staff, and tons of surprises and amazing comebacks, including the darkhorse and top cadet Jeremiah Rodriguez, who topped nearly all competitors in a 5-1 record for the night, giving him the top spot for Week 2.
The final week of Summer Slash IV brought together nine competitors— three of the top placers from each week. The top positions were heavily populated by members of Lightspeed Saber Irvine like Rob Chan, Jamar Johnson, Jeremiah Rodriguez, Max Whitaker, and Walter Simbol; but also included two wolves: Rico Thompson and Andre Gonzales, a penguin: Richard Liang, and top women’s competitor Jowanna Lewis, coming all the way from Las Vegas.
Lightspeed Saber of Southern California strikes back with its popular Summer Slash series, this time in a new, never-before-seen COVID-compliant format that keeps crowds down and provides ample time for any necessary quarantining.
