The college esports space is huge, and unfortunately, unorganized. There is a multitude of college conferences, organizers, and events that make up the college scene. With so many variables, it made college esports notoriously hard to follow. But Riot Games and League of Legends are keenly aware of this and created their official "CLOL" tournament for college. But the LCS, League's North American pro division, wants to take it a step further. LCS Commissioner, Chris Greely, spoke with us about how the Riot Games are looking to bring amateur League of Legends under their umbrella.

"We’re committed to growing and elevating esports in North America so we’ll be moving scholastic and amateur esports programs under the #LCS to support the entire competitive pipeline. We’re looking for a leader to help us make NA the most competitive region in @lolesports. This role will oversee our developmental ecosystem including college, high school, amateur, and academy. Apply, tag friends, and retweet - help get the word out." - Chris Greeley via Twitter
