After the qualifying matches, the MPS team rankings were:
#2 – BrewTech 4828X
#4 – Park Crossing 82473P
#5 – LAMP 81218D
#11 – Park Crossing 82473C
#13 – LAMP 81218C
#14 – LAMP 81218S
#16 – LAMP 81218F
#18 – LAMP 81218A

All nine MPS teams advanced to the quarterfinals, with BrewTech's 4828X and 4828A moving on to the semifinals.
BrewTech's 4828X team battled all the way to the finals, narrowly missing the top spot in an exciting finish!
