About this listen

When we think of college sports, we imagine football scholarships and packed stadiums. But what if you're a competitor who crushes it at Mario Kart or would rather watch Fortnite streams for fun?

We've got you covered.

This week, Dr. Ross and student producer Ashley Worley explore the realm of Esports with Kenna Rivers, UT Tyler's team captain for Rainbow Six Siege. As an avid gamer and junior Nursing major, Kenna reveals the ways Esports can transform a student's college experience for the better, helping them develop teamwork, leadership, and practical career skills in a fun environment. For casual or new players in the crowd, she shares how the Esports lab's resources create opportunities to have fun with friends, build community, and even win prize money. Whoever you are and however you enjoy gaming, Esports has something for you.
