Hi, I'm Parker, a senior studying electrical engineering through the cooperative MSU and Missouri S&T program. Growing up, I played only a few games, but Rocket League was the one I excelled in the most. Now, MSU had the brilliant idea to pay us to do what we love. What more could I ask for? Go Bears!

The competitiveness and teamwork involved in Rocket League fuels my drive to improve and compete. I love the thrill of each match and the community that surrounds the game. Go Bears!

My name is Andrew Appleby, and I am a junior studying computer science at MSU. One day in 2019, I was at my neighbor's house, and he was playing Rocket League. After giving it a try, I fell in love with the game and have been playing ever since.

Hello! My name is Allan Mitchell and I'm currently a 5th year student here at Missouri State. I'm getting my undergrad degrees in Music and Entertainment Management and I just started the accelerated master's program to get my MBA. I first started playing Rocket League back in middle school and was only able to play offline against the bots for several years. My brother later bought me the game on steam for my birthday in High School and I became addicted. Playing this game at MSU these past few years has been nothing but amazing and I'm super excited that the program is starting to grow. To be a part of this first group of players to receive scholarships is such an amazing experience and I can't wait to see what comes next.
