Program DNA
Rooted in Hagerman
Founded in the late 1800s, Hagerman grew around the Pecos Valley railroad. Incorporated in 1905, this small but proud community in Chaves County, NM continues to keep a strong tradition in agriculture, family, schools, and community service. We carry that same hardworking spirit from the physical fields into the digital arenas.

Absolutely. Esports is an ecosystem. If you aren't interested in playing competitively, we always need students interested in shoutcasting, graphic design, video editing, social media management, and live stream production via OBS.
