With MHSAA winter postseason tournaments beginning this week, MHSAA.tv will provide live video streams of selected events produced by members of the School Broadcast Program.
Team Wrestling takes to the screen on Wednesday and Thursday (Feb. 8-9), with District tournaments being streamed at Comstock Park, East Lansing and Lake Orion.
In its eighth year, the School Broadcast Program gives members an opportunity to showcase excellence in their schools by creating video programming of athletic and non-athletic events, with students gaining skills in announcing, camera operation, directing/producing and graphics.
The program also gives schools the opportunity to raise money through advertising and viewing subscriptions.
All sporting events – Live or On-Demand – are available on a subscription basis only for their first 72 hours online. They become available for free, on-demand viewing approximately 72 hours following their completion.
