If you are a gamer at Amarillo College, Christopher George would like to make your acquaintance, but please move to the front of the line if you have a special knack for deploying palm-released biotic orbs.Virtually, of course.George is director of AC Badger Esports, and he invites AC students of all majors to participate in all levels of gaming – from casual to highly competitive – at AC’s state-of-the-art gaming center on the fourth floor of Parcells Hall. However, the most serious e-athletes are likely to be tasked with adding to the program’s trophy case, which presently boasts four national titles – three in Overwatch (a hotbed of biotic orbs) and one in Valorant.
Amarillo College’s Badger Esports program is pleased to announce an exciting new affiliation that will provide students with significantly enhanced opportunities to excel in the rapidly growing world of competitive gaming.Badger Esports has officially gained membership in the National Junior College Athletic Association Esports (NJCAAE), a nonprofit association serving only two-year, technical, and community colleges in collegiate esports.
