There’s a new athletics team coming to Keuka College in Upstate New York, but its members won’t be playing on a turf field or inside a gym. Instead, for the first time in Division III intercollegiate athletic history, varsity-level online video gaming—or eSports—will arrive at Keuka College in early 2016. Competing in the virtual world of League of Legends, (LoL) the team will be backed by a full-time coach, attend regular practice sessions, and represent the Green & Gold in matches and championship tournaments.
If you’re a high school junior or senior interesting in joining Keuka College’s new eSports team, please visit their website to learn more and request information.
