Esports Teams to Compete for National Titles For the first time in program history, Maryville’s League of Legends Esports team and Maryville’s Overwatch Esports team will both compete for national titles. The championship tournaments will take place this spring with winners to be announced in late May. Both teams are poised for success, said Dan Clerke, Maryville’s director of Esports. The teams also made history earlier this season when they were both ranked No. 1 in North America at the same time. Additionally, in April, Maryville University was a major sponsor of the first national Esports finals in
St. Louis, the League of Legends spring finals hosted by Riot Games.
