Mason Mullenioux
CEO, High School eSports League
Mason founded the High School Esports League in 2013 with the mission that esports deserve to be a varsity level sport. Knowing that many students struggle to find a place to call their own in high school, Mason and the HSEL are now connecting them to a community and scholarship opportunities. The HSEL is now serving over 600 high schools across the country.

Also, as 9-12 remains regional rather than national oversight, this panel will review the challenges and successes high schools have had dealing with local school boards, especially with increasing resistance to FPS games.
