CECC made a bold decision, to let students tell the stories that thousands across the nation and world would tune in to watch during Championship Season in Collegiate Esports.
Combine that with a brand new venue, select new staff members, and there was a lot of unknowns coming into this weekend.
However, people forget that our industry was founded by current professionals starting their clubs and hosting LAN parties, when they were students. The competitors you bring on scholarship and the people you trust to manage them, or stream them, or create content about them, they are all students.
Not only that, but one of the best parts of the current state of Scholastic Esports is that the bar is getting raised for competition and performance on all fronts.
So even with these unknowns, not only was I surrounded by serious professionals who just happen to be undergraduate students, but some of the best possible representatives of their schools and what I believe is the entire student body.
Our team was uber-prepared, extremely confident, and very well versed in every single player in Waco this year and I believe we put on a wonderful show for a “bunch of students.”
Alongside a shoutout for my fellow talent, I also want to ensure I thank the many people who got me here to CECC, and helped shape by casting ability.
To my Fiancé and my family, to @Freddymac48999 @Infernos1s @BepicCasts @neonnstarr @WBBChris you have all had a direct impact in my ability to travel to events, my talents as a broadcaster, and just getting my name in the hat of so many opportunities, and your support has meant the absolute world to me.
I’m also very thankful to have a top tier education at @universityofga and represent the College of Journalism and the Sports Media program as of a few weeks ago!
To my fellow talent below and to all CECC talent before us, thank you for making this event as notable as it is, and I hope our chapter has made you proud.
