our viewers to watch local student-athletes compete to reach the highest-level of
achievement in high school sports – a State Championship, Keeler added. “We
are excited about a long-term partnership with OSAA that will not be limited to
football but will also feature women’s sports as we expand this partnership in the
years to come.”
Future championship events will also be broadcast on Portland’s CW, including
