Jeremy Goossens, director of esports at Trine University, earned honorable mention
from ECAC Esports, the comprehensive collegiate esports league where Trine competes,
for the fall 2025 season.
ECAC announced the recognition as part of its Coach of the Season and Director of the Season honors for the fall.
Trine’s varsity Overwatch team finished fourth in the nation in the ECAC’s Titans division, the league’s top division.
Twenty of Trine’s 26 esports teams qualified for national playoffs this past semester. The Valorant JV finished second in their division, while Overwatch JV finished in the top three.
With teams spanning North America, ECAC hosts two seasons each year: one in the fall and one in the spring. Each season features a seven-week regular season, which is formatted either as a round-robin or Swiss style, depending on the game. This is followed by a playoff period lasting three or four weeks.
Three administrators from Trine University’s College of Graduate and Professional Studies (CGPS) will share their success with using technology to support significant growth in an upcoming national webinar.
Trine University Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) students and faculty presented research at the American Physical Therapy Association’s largest national conference, the Combined Sections Meeting, held in Anaheim, California, Feb. 12-14.
