Lakeland University has joined the eSports world. The university has added eSports to its varsity athletic program. It also named former Green Bay Packers running back Ahman Green as its eSports Head Coach. Green, the Packers all-time leading rusher, played 12 seasons in the NFL including two stints with the Packers. Green has always been a gamer and after retiring from football in 2009, his interest in eSports grew.
Lakeland will have a co-ed team and will be a part of the National Association of Collegiate Esports (NACE) along with 150+ other colleges nationwide. Lakeland currently has an eSports club with more than 30 student members which helped fuel the interest in starting a varsity team. The University will renovate an existing 3,000-square foot space to be used by the eSports team while also adding 18 gaming stations, six consoles and a lounge area for spectators.
Green hopes to change the stereotype of gamers. He plans to practice with them in the offseason while also putting students on nutritional programs and teaching them good health habits.
In the NBA tonight, Philadelphia is at Milwaukee. The Bucks have the best record in the league at 43-7 while the 76ers are 31-20, and 12 ½ games behind Milwaukee in the Eastern Conference.
