The Mustangs won 34-22, and both teams performed improv games such as the texting game, where three out of four members of the team can only respond with texts on an audience member’s phone during a skit, and the dating game, where one player leads the stage and the audience provides identities for the three others, and the fourth player gets to ask three questions before guessing.
