The event, hosted by the Elements hip-hop student organization, aims to repre­ sent four elements of hip-hop culture: break dancing, dee­ jaying, emceeing and black book - a.k.a. graffiti art.

The event, open to all members of the community, brought in more than 1,000 people from Gainesville to Miami, said Andres Caceres, senior molecular and micro­ biology major and president of Elements.

UCF's Recreation and Wellness Center was the site of some fierce competition Saturday. The teams of play­ ers weren't there to play con­ ventional intramural sports like basketball, football or baseball. They were there to hurl small neon, orange and green balls at each other as hard a possible. They were there for dodge­ ball. ' Twenty-two alF·male and four co-ed teams competed in the event, said Gary Cahen, the RWC's assistant director for intramural sports. Dodgeball is normally a spring sport, but UCF partici­ pated in the event. to give "[students] a taste of dodge­ ball in the fall," Cahen said. Stride Gum, which spon­ sored the tournament as part of its Stride On Campus pro­ motion, has sponsored similar tournaments at schools such as Ohio State University and the University of South Flori­ da. Stride gave away T-shirts, wrist sweatbands and gum samples to all tournament participants. For more than four hours, teams of four ducked, dived, dodged and threw their way through the ranks.
