Entering the homestretch of the regular season, the Barton Community College eSports program sustained their momentum as all four unbeaten teams remained perfect in week six action.

Maintaining a winning week for the sixth straight week, the Cougars wrapped the 10-slate of games with a 7-3 mark moving their overall spring record to 41-21. Barton will kick off 10-more contests in week seven action scheduled to begin Monday evening inside the Cougar Arena.

The Madden 22 three pack got the Cougars off and running securing the first wins of the week during a 4-0 Tuesday evening. Reigning National Champion Davon Morris (6-0) and teammate Chance Costello (6-0) sustained their perfect ways in matches and games earning 2-0 sweeps over Dawson Community College and Kingsborough Community College respectively. The duo's counterpart Caden Nokleby laid to rest his three game skid with a 2-0 breeze over St. Clair Community College moving back to .500 at 3-3 keeping his postseason hopes alive with three contests remaining.

Fresh off a week five bye, the Rainbow 6 Siege clan indicated no signs of rust capping the perfect 4-0 night destroying their opposition from Louisburg College 2-0. Sitting at 5-0 on the season and posting a 12-0 map record the clan of five will look to conclude a perfect campaign in their final regular season match against Western Technical College on Tuesday.

In Thursday's lone match featuring Kindric Castro and Adam Hardin in Call of Duty Gunfight 2v2, the twosome manifested their sixth straight 3-0 sweep of the season defeating Herkimer College. The pair look to make it seven straight with a Thursday meeting against Hudson Valley Community College before concluding the final two weeks against Navarro College and Trinidad State College.

On the hardwood, Anthony Twiggs and Kaleb Lininger secured the Cougars winning week each recording victories in NBA2K.

Facing a bit of a scare, Twiggs fought off a winner-take all contest to remain perfect at 5-0 defeating Gogebic Community College kicking off Friday's trio of games. Lininger added the second Barton victory of the night cruising to a 2-0 sweep over Nassau Community College stretching his winning streak to four straight after falling in week one action.

Joshua Neal on the other hand had a rough go for the Cougars suffering his second straight defeat falling to Gogebic Community College 2-0 dropping to 3-3 on the season.

Also falling on the wrong side of the scoreboard was the Rocket League and Call of Duty Vanguard 4v4 teams. In Rocket League, the Cougars dropped to 2-4 on the season falling in a 3-2 heartbreaker to Crowder College while the COD: Vanguard 4v4 squad dropped all three maps to Pennsylvania Highlands Community College dipping to 1-4 overall.
