Our Valorant teams launched shortly after the game was introduced in fall quarter 2020. Currently, we have a Varsity team and a Junior Varsity (JV) team, as well as several academy teams. The team has seen great success with competition and community in focus, with regular pick-up games for all students to enter, and team competition throughout each quarter. Tryouts take place annually in the fall.
