Columbia, Mo. - Columbia College advanced to the next round of the uLoL Campus Series Tournament untouched with a 5-0 record. In similar fashion, CC Blue defeated University of Wisconsin–Platteville 2-0 Monday night.

In Game 1, the action started right away with Jonathan "Hollywood" Song snagging first blood just 51 seconds into the game. CC picked up two more kills in the top and bot lanes of the map shortly after and continued to punish Wisconsin's early misplays with heavy aggression. The pace of the game spiraled uncontrollably for Wisconsin from that point on. The Cougars averaged 2.1 kills per minute, finishing the game 47-15 in 22 minutes of play. Overall, every player on the Cougar lineup out-performed the opposing team. Song scored an impressive 30,251 in total damage and posted 580.85 GPM (gold per minute).
