St. Cloud State University’s student-run Husky Productions is again teaming with FOX Sports this season to produce four live men’s hockey broadcasts airing on FOX Sports North, FOX Sports North Plus and FOX College Sports.
TV Channels
Fox Sports North Plus (FSN+)
- DirectTV 668-1
- Charter 227/827
- Dish Network 445
Fox College Sports (FCS)
- DirecTV 608
- Charter 414
Along with the four broadcasts on FOX Sports, Husky Productions will broadcast 11 home games on the St. Cloud State Sports Network (Charter 426/823).
Husky Productions is run like an independent production company – professional high expectations are standard from day one. With Husky Productions and UTVS (the university’s television station), learning and the challenges are met head on. Students do it all from punching the buttons in the production room, manning the cameras and being the live-talent anchors during the shows.
“Airing our production on such a prestigious network like Fox Sports North, speaks volumes to the quality and commitment of our student crew at Husky Productions,” said Brian Stanley, executive producer of Husky Productions. “These opportunities are rare for college students and FOX Sports North is trusting us to maintain their standards and professional look. This real world experience sets St. Cloud State apart from other institutions offering television degrees, and our students are the benefactors.”
The first FOX Sports broadcast is scheduled for Oct. 16 versus Minnesota State, Mankato.
“Our student crew is very excited to bring St. Cloud State hockey to the national stage. It should be an exciting game between in-state rivals,” said Katelynn Halter, Husky Productions producer.
The four live broadcasts on FOX Sports are:
- Oct. 16 versus Minnesota State, Mankato – FSN+/FCS
- Nov. 20 versus North Dakota – FSN+/FCS
- Jan. 22 versus Western Michigan – FSN
- Feb. 27 versus Minnesota-Duluth – FSN+/FCS
