Esports makes history vs. UNLV

Fresno State makes history and officially joins the rest of the Mountain West in the realm of esports.

On Jan. 25, head coach Tommy Lee and his League of Legends (LOL) varsity team competed in the first eSports match in Fresno State history.

The newly formed Bulldogs team competed against UNLV 8-Bit eSports, however, came up short losing the match 2-0.

Although the team was shutout, Lee was proud of how well his team performed.

“I was superproud,” Lee said. “They were hitting on things they didn’t even know at the start.”

For the inaugural game in school history, everything ranging from equipment to production ran smoothly.
