On Tuesday, the FCT League of Legends team (senior Peyton Brown, freshmen Kamdyn Huppert and Andre Shafer, and 7th Graders Kreighton Huppert, Leo Rue, and Conner Sailors) won their first preseason match 2-0 in a best of three. They competed against David Starr Jordan Senior High School in Los Angles, CA.

Also on Tuesday, some of the Smash Team were able to compete in their first preseason matches. sophomore Camden Jean lost 2-0 to a student from McCook High School, sophomores Burke Wissman and Deacon Jacobs both lost 2-0 to students from Omaha Concordia High School, sophomore Asher Kuker lost 2-0 to a student from Fort Calhoun High School, and freshman Jarred Webster lost 2-0 to a student from Throckmorton High School in Throckmorton, TX (joined a later queue time, placing him outside the NSESA preseason queue).

On Monday, the FCT Overwatch 2 team (sophmores Deacon Jacobs, Asher Kuker, and Carter Rumbaugh, 8th Graders Cohen Shields, Seth Jackson, and Dierks Foster, and 7th Graders Kreighton Huppert and James Lunsford) competed in their first preseason match against Ike ESports from Eisenhower High School in Lawton, Oklahoma. Ike, whose five starters were a much higher level, won the match 3-0 in a best of five.

Exciting week for our Tiger ESports Program. The Nebraska Schools ESports Association's (NSESA) Fall Season started this week with a two week preseason, and the regular season set to begin September 22. Because of the growing interest in ESports across the state, now with over 120 schools competing in four classifications, the NSESA has partnered with the nation-wide ESports Platform, Play Verses (PlayVS). This partnership provides our student-athletes with additional opportunities throughout the school year. This Fall, the NSESA will be competing in Marvel Rivals, Chess Online, Rocket League, and Super Smash Bros Ultimate. In the Spring, the NSESA will be competing in Valorant, Fortnite, Mario Kart, and one other game still to be determined. As part of PlayVS, the Tiger ESports Program will be fielding teams for Overwatch 2 and League of Legends this Fall who will compete against teams across the nation. The Tiger ESports Program has almost thirty student-athletes from Grades 7-12 competing this Fall, and it has another twenty 6th Grade students participating in its after-school club on Wednesdays.

This is one of the things we love about our esports program, and this is also one of the things most people who don’t understand gaming get. We shared a video with our FCT ESports supporters through our ESports Band App Group where they could listen to these young men communicating together, and it's awesome. The amount of communication, skill, and teamwork that go into most of our games in order to be successful rivals any other sport, and they’re tools that these student-athletes can use now and in their future to be the best versions of themselves. More colleges every year are giving out more scholarship money because esports is quickly growing at the high school and collegiate level, and these colleges know that most esports competitors are tech savvy and do very well in school, so they want them to come to their school. #FCTEsports
