"Cerro Coso's Game Tournament is a great way for the community to come and
participate with their local college community. Not only is it a blast, but
it's also a way for our community to learn more about Cerro Coso, the
programs and services we offer, and check out our wonderful learning
facilities," stated Cori Ratliff, Instructional Design Specialist and
Digital Media Arts adjunct faculty. "Cerro Coso not only focuses on offering
students a high-quality education, but the college is also interested in
forming community partnerships and promoting the college within our local
community."
Game Crazy, a local tournament sponsor, and Rent-A-Center will also be
joining with Cerro Coso for this tournament and for our future tournaments
coming soon. As this is an X-Box based tournament, it will be sure to thrill
gamers of all ages and skill levels.
