Above: This year at NCJCL Fall Forum, gladiators came from across the state to establish their chapters
dominance and prove that they were the strongest in all the land. Riverside came to the competition
with two worthy delegates Caelius DeConto and Elijah Rodriguez. Unfortunately, each chapter can
only send one delegate to the final competition, and thus a brutal duel began. Caelius on the left
blocked each of Eli's strikes, and Eli dodged counter-attacks as if his life depended on it, and his life did.
However, this was the battle to a metaphorical death, only one Riverside JCL delegate could reign
supreme.
