CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Cascade Collegiate Conference has announced a four-year, exclusive streaming rights agreement with Urban Edge Network ("UEN"), bringing select CCC-sanctioned sports and broadcasts to UEN's growing digital platforms. The partnership expands UEN's collegiate footprint in the Pacific Northwest and Western Canada while delivering all-day game programming across U.S. time zones. Starting later this month, all Corban University Athletic home events will be broadcasted to UEN's national digital platform.
"We are thrilled to announce this new agreement with Urban Edge Network," Corban director of athletics Bill Pilgeram shared on this groundbreaking agreement as one of the fulltime members for the west coast based conference. "This partnership marks a significant step forward in enhancing the visibility of Corban Athletics and providing our fans with free, high-quality livestreams of Warrior competitions and the entire CCC."
CCC schools will be joining the UEN platform as soon as possible, as onboarding gets scheduled and completed. Members of Warrior Nation can look forward to the first fall sport UEN broadcasts from Corban beginning on October 31st, while winter and spring sports will begin streaming on UEN at the start of their respective seasons.
"Locking in the Cascade Collegiate Conference shores up the western half of our DMA map and completes our coast-to-coast live window—so fans wake up with games on the East Coast and roll straight through prime time in the Pacific. From cross country at sunrise to baseball under the lights, UEN now programs all day, every day, for every sport. This is exactly how we make college sports more accessible for student-athletes, alumni, and brands alike," said Hardy L. Pelt, Founding Member & Chief Revenue Officer of UEN.
