Related Topics: Matthew Wilson

Those already or looking to be involved in The University of Akron’s esports team got together for their first forum to discuss the future of the team.

The forum began with President Matthew Wilson talking about the impact that esports has and will have on the University itself. He also stressed on how it will be compared to other sporting events, as a testament to the sports growing popularity.

The Director of Esports, Michael Fay Jr., then took the stand. He spent his time mostly talking about the details that others have been looking for.

It was announced that there will be five different teams spotted in four different locations, one of which being off campus.
