Lancer Gaming tames Wildcats to secure first international win

Lancer Gaming defeated the Wildcats of Penn College in two straight games of League of Legends on Saturday, Jan. 30, to secure the program’s first international win.

“I am really proud of the Lancers’ combined play,” said head coach Ali Abduelmula. “I am also proud of Owen Huang, who dealt with tough competition from an enemy laner and came up with unique strategies through exceptional teleports and map pressure to hold the line.”

The victory leaves the team 1-1 in NACE play with its next round robin competitor to be announced later this week. A replay of the match-up can be found on Lancer Gaming’s official Twitch channel, Twitch.TV/UWINLancerGaming.
