For the Love of the Game- Blackford sports fans start own network

 

HARTFORD CITY, Ind. (NewsLink)- Hartford City was relatively unknown before Luke Brown started draining buckets from anywhere on the basketball court. He soon became the fastest player in Indiana State history to 1,000 career points.

What no one saw coming was the inception of the Blackford High School’s own sports network. It started with Steve Hurd just using his phone to stream games on Facebook Live, but then he started getting equipment until he went all in.

Now Hurd is joined by Cody Crouse and Grant Banter on basketball broadcasts where they each have their own headset, a two-camera broadcast, and even sponsors.

Hurd wants Blackford Sports Network to continue to grow and cover more and more Blackford sports and he shows no signs of slowing down. With over 1,200 YouTube subscribers and counting, BSN continues to gain support as Brown continues to make history.
