Dresden Lewis, 20, of Matawan looks over some of the possible weapons available as he plays Valorant with the Brookdale team. Brookdale Community College has built an esports arena where students and the community can practice video gaming. It's the latest step in joining a rapidly growing industry. As part of it, the college also has introduced its first varsity esports team featuring 19 players for three different games.

T1 recorded a sweep of LNG Esports on Sunday in the quarterfinals of the Knockout Stage at the 2023 League of Legends World Championship in Busan, South Korea.

T1 recorded 27-, 32- and 26-minute wins on red to dispatch LNG.

The quick victory set up a semifinal clash on Nov. 12 against JD Gaming, who posted a 3-1 win over KT Rolster on Saturday.

The other semifinal, to be played Nov. 11, features Weibo Gaming and Bilibili Gaming.

The knockout round concludes with the Nov. 19 grand final at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul.
