It is an absolute honor to serve as the University of Evansville's Esports Head Coach & Coordinator, my alma mater. I graduated from UE with a degree in Sports Communications in 2024 and competed as a founding player for our Esports program on Overwatch 2. During my tenure as a player, I watched myself and my teammates turn a start-up program into a feared matchup for other colleges. After going 3-8 in our first semester, the following fall we went 13-0 in competition with a Regional Championship for our division to cap it off. Because of the team's success, we received an automatic bid to the NECC National Championship for our division. We stormed our way through the National Championship tournament going 3-0 leading up to a complete shutout in the National Championship against our opponent and securing our program's first National Championship in just it's 3rd semester of competition. Our team was led by former player and now Coach, Dylan Mofield, who still serves as the Overwatch coach today as well as former Coordinator and Head Coach of UE Esports, Samuel Henderson. Today, we are finding more and more success in all of our titles, including Rocket League, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Counter Strike 2, Overwatch 2, Call of Duty and Fortnite, while fully believing in our mission of developing champions beyond the game. We are always looking to add new games to compete in, so if you have any suggestions feel free to contact the email attached. Additionally, if you have interest in joining our program or have any questions at all regarding our program or the University of Evansville, please contact Coach Ethan Jaworski using ej107@evansville.edu or esports@evansville.edu!
