The Student Council continued its Mario Bros. themed lunch activities for Homecoming Week 2014 with Mario Video Games in the Commons on Tuesday, Sept. 30.

Students signed up to play their favorite Mario games set up in six different television screens. Jays clustered around each game watching and cheering on their classmates in Mario Kart, Mario Sluggers, Mario Striker, and Smash Bros. The winners of each game were challenged by a new player, each person playing until he was defeated.
