We kick off our winter season tomorrow with a Colonial League boys\/girls doubleheader, followed by a bunch of competitive basketball and wrestling events this season.<\/p>\n

Once again, we will feature nearly every team in our coverage area within the first month of the season.<\/p>\n

Also, for the third straight winter, all live high school regular season broadcasts will be streamed for free on our YouTube channel at YouTube.com\/@AstoundTVnetwork<\/p>\n

So, here’s a peek at the first 5 to 6 weeks\u00a0and a few highlighted games beyond that, coming up this winter on Astound TV Network…<\/p>\n
