Wofford game to be televised

The Catamounts home football game against SoCon foe Wofford will be televised on November 5th as part of the SoCon's new partnership with public television systems (PBS) in three states, Georgia/NC/SC.   The distribution plan will reach nearly 11 million homes through 32 affiliates, making it the largest regional distribution option across both broadcast and cable.

"We're genuinely excited by the partnership with Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina public stations," said SoCon Commissioner John Iamarino. "This is an important step for us. It increases our previous reach by two million households, while allowing us to control our rights and our content, and it enables us to use this partnership to promote and publicize not only SoCon football, but other educational activities taking place on our campuses."
