Collegiate Starleague: Season 3
General Information[edit]
CSL Season 3 is the last season in which Starcraft: Brood War was played.
Regular Season[edit]
Format[edit]
During the regular season, teams were divided into a Western and Eastern conference and then further divided into four divisions in each conference where they competed in weekly round robin play. The schools in each conference and division were selected based on geographical location. The top three schools from each division advance to the playoffs.

- Set 1: 1v1
- Set 2: 1v1
- Set 3: 1v1
- Set 4: 1v1
