Andrew Barnett, CEO of LeagueSpot, commented: “The LeagueSpot team is humbled that NACE Starleague trusts LeagueSpot to power its programme moving forward. We’re excited to support a best-in-class experience for every participating school.”
The NACE Starleague was formed earlier this year as a collaboration between CSL Esports, the National Association of Collegiate Esports (NACE) and Nerd Street.
The incorporation of LeagueSpot’s platform comes as NACE Starleague celebrates its fall season that saw more than 700 varsity teams and nearly 10,000 total players competing across more than 5,000 matches.
On top of this, NACE Starleague also welcomed 14 corporate sponsors including Monster Energy Canada, GUNNAR Optiks and MAVIX.
