The Muskingum University Athletic Department is excited to announce the addition of scholarships to the esports program.

Muskingum, a member of the National Association of College Esports and founding member of the Great Lakes Esports Conference, is led by Head Coach Christopher Bilski. Scholarships will be available for League of Legends, Rocket League, Overwatch, Fortnite, Rainbow 6 Siege, and Valorant. To be considered for a scholarship, prospective Muskies must contact Coach Bilski at cbilski@muskingum.edu.

"We are thrilled to offer esports scholarships for students interested in the varsity esports program at Muskingum University," said Coach Bilski. "We hope to attract well-rounded student-athletes to Muskingum, and the skills students will learn on and off the playing field will be ones they can utilize for the rest of their lives. We look forward to building on the program's early success, and hope to continue to develop Muskingum into a top contender in collegiate esports."

The Muskies, who compete on campus in their state-of-the-art gaming facility called The Arena, racked up 24 wins during their inaugural 2019-20 campaign and secured a season-best six-game winning streak.
