Dealing with bright lighting at competitions and vision

This weekend we competed at the North Star regional and will be progressing onwards to Championship. However, throughout the regional we struggled to get vision tracking on the tower working due to other lighting at the event reflecting off of the tower and conflicting with our green LEDs despite tweaking of our HSV filter. Currently we are running an HSV filter on the image from our camera and then comparing the area of each particle found by NIVision to the area of the convex hull to eliminate solid lights found in the background. Is there anything that we could do to improve our recognition, especially for under the lighting at Championship?
