LEETONIA PROVIDES GROUNDBREAKING OPPORTUNITY FOR E-SPORTS STUDENTS

LEETONIA, OH- In the ever-changing world of athletics, you’ll have an ongoing interest in major sports such as football, basketball, volleyball, and baseball.  However, leadership in Leetonia is progressively pushing toward a new evolution in sports we have come to know as “E-Sports.”

With the concerns with injury and COVID-19, Leetonia is now in their second year of participation in e-sports with last year’s team competing in Fortnite where they went 6-1, while the 2021 teams compete in Rocket League and have yet to be defeated.

We had the opportunity to sit down with Tucker Stark, Tim Finch, and Mikey Monahan to discuss some of the great things they’re doing and ground that’s being broken for the future of e-sports in the Mahoning Valley.
