PREPARING FOR BATTLE

esports readies for Fall 2020 with interest nights, tryouts

Central Michigan’s esports program is set to welcome in its newest recruits. With the new gaming center in the Student Activity Center ready for use, the program is going to host interest nights during the first week of classes before tryouts for its four varsity games — expanded from two last season.

The program will feature two games a night from 6-8 p.m. on Aug. 19-20. Rocket League and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (Aug. 19) and Overwatch and League of Legends (Aug. 20) will be streamed on the program’s Twitch channel.
