PlayVS, the startup bringing an e-sports infrastructure to the high school level, has announced that it will partner with Riot’s League of Legends for its early-access season.
High school students across five states, including Connecticut, Georgia, Kentucky, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, will be able to sign up to play for their school in Season Zero, which begins in October 2018.
