GRAY MEDIA AND THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE HOCKEY CONFERENCE TEAM UP TO BRING ELITE COLLEGE HOCKEY FREE OVER-THE-AIR TO VIEWERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY
2024年12月7日 - 3:00AM
Gray Media (NYSE: GTN) and the National Collegiate Hockey
Conference (NCHC) today announced that select NCHC college hockey
games will appear free, over-the-air on Gray’s market-leading
television stations and over-the-air broadcast sports networks
across the country. The first game, pitting No. 2-ranked and
defending national champion Denver and No. 8-ranked Colorado
College, will air in more than 20 Gray markets, including in St.
Louis on Matrix Midwest Sports, throughout Louisiana on the Gulf
Coast Sports & Entertainment Network, and across South Carolina
on the Palmetto Sports & Entertainment Network on Friday,
December 13, 2024 at 7 p.m. Mountain Time.
Gray’s stations are deeply committed to the sport of hockey to
serve their local viewers. For example, Gray stations air the
Carolina Hurricanes (NHL), Cleveland Monsters (AHL), Kansas City
Mavericks (ECHL), the Great Lakes Invitational (NCAA), Atlanta
Gladiators (ECHL), multiple Southern Professional Hockey league
teams, and many more. In addition, Gray’s wholly owned production
company, Raycom Sports, produces all of the games for the
Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL).
“We’re excited to partner with Gray Media to expand the
Conference’s linear television offerings,” said NCHC Commissioner
Heather Weems. “This will put a premier NCHC game each week on
several local TV stations in non-NCHC markets, as well as some of
our own media markets, growing exposure for the Conference and the
high-quality product that defines college hockey. Combining Gray’s
reach with our already existing CBS Sports Network agreement and
NCHC.tv, fans will be provided more options than ever to enjoy NCHC
hockey.”
“Hockey is a fan favorite in many of our local markets,” said
Sandy Breland, Chief Operating Officer of Gray. “We are pleased to
bring this top-notch conference and highly ranked teams to local
viewers.”
All NCHC games airing on Gray’s stations will also still be
available on NCHC.tv, the Conference’s official streaming platform.
The majority of the games to air on Gray’s stations will take place
on Saturday nights starting in January.
The December 13 matchup between Colorado College and Denver will
also air nationally in Canada on TSN2. Other Friday night NCHC
games will be televised nationally on CBS Sports Network starting
in January.
