Seton Hall University’s Esports program concluded its Fall 2025 season with notable progress across several games, including League of Legends, Overwatch 2, Rocket League, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. The teams balanced their academic work with competitive schedules and adjusted to new team lineups.

The League of Legends squad faced a challenging schedule and began the season with wins against Savannah College of Art and Design and Oklahoma Christian Esports. They later played against established programs such as New York University, Cumberland University, and George Mason University. Despite setbacks midseason, the team secured another victory over Virginia Tech before finishing the regular season with a 3–4 record.

The Overwatch 2 team achieved an undefeated regular season in PCL Ranked competition and made it to the playoff finals after wins over California State University Dominguez Hills and Huntingdon College. The Pirates finished as playoff runner-up after a close final against the University of the Fraser Valley. In Garden State Esports conference play, they placed seventh overall with a 4–8 record.

Rocket League fielded an entirely new roster comprised of first-year students under coach Antonio “Tone” Riozzi. The team improved throughout the season and recorded victories over Michigan Technological University and the University of St. Thomas in Texas, ending with a 2–5 record.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was one of Seton Hall’s strongest performers this fall. The team completed an undefeated regular season in PCL Ranked play and reached the Grand Finals on December 12 before finishing as playoff runner-up to St. John’s. In Garden State Esports Smash Crews competition, Seton Hall finished third overall with a 9–5 record.

Looking ahead to Spring 2026, Seton Hall Esports will focus on BIG EAST Conference play while aiming for continued growth at both regional and national levels. Teams are preparing to debut new uniforms that will represent a refreshed identity during upcoming competitions.
