The Rocks defeated St. Xavier in the finals of the Super Smash Bros. 2022-23 Winter Season State Championship.  Along the way, they also knocked off Valley and Manual.

For the first time in Trinity Esports history, the Rocks took three varsity teams to the state tournament, held Dec. 16 at the UK Esports Lounge at the Cornerstone in Lexington. The Madden Football, Rocket League, and Super Smash Bros. teams competed.

Head coach Mitch Greenwell called the opponents faced on the road to Lexington “the most competitive field the state has ever had to get here.”
