Many of the Warner Esports teams have kicked off their 2026 seasons and are seeing huge wins against programs in the SUN Conference and across the nation.
Starting off with Rocket League, following their great start to the season, they fell to Arcadia University but bounced back with a win against Marywood University for their placement NECC games. The team went on to win their NECC regular season games against Embry Riddle (FL) and Niner Esports. The Royals kept their hot streak going as they took a clean sweep over their SUN Conference games against New College of Florida (3-0), Texas A&M Texarkana (3-0) and St. Thomas University (3-0)
The Super Smash Brothers Ultimate team won their first NECC placement match against Stonehill College before falling to Loyola University (LA) (0-2) and University of Alabama Huntsville in their first two regular season games in the NECC. After these losses, Warner was able to turn things around in a hard-fought SUN Conference win against Texas A&M Texarkana (2-0).
The Overwatch Gold Team is off to a great start to the season, first with a scrimmage win against Keiser University (3-0), before falling in their sole loss so far this season during a placement NECC game to Northwestern University (1-2). The team bounced back quickly winning their next two SUN Conference games against SCAD-Atlanta (3-0) and Southeastern University (3-0), in what were both huge wins for the program. The team's ECAC match against Delaware (3-1) and their PlayVs College matches against Auburn University (3-0) and University of Central Florida (3-0) all ended in big wins for Warner.
Royals Esports have had an amazing start to their 2026 seasons and will look to continue to establish themselves as one of the top programs in the Nation.
