KLKN-TV partners with LPS to stream varsity games this fall
Lincoln Public Schools is excited to announce a partnership with local ABC affiliate KLKN-TV to stream 29 varsity athletic competitions this fall. The lineup includes varsity football games played at Seacrest Field and six varsity volleyball matches around Lincoln. The games can be found on the station’s website: klkntv.com
“This is an excellent opportunity for students, staff, families and our community to view these competitions and celebrate our student-athletes,” said Kathi Wieskamp, LPS director of athletics. “We are thankful for the partnership with KLKN-TV to engage our community while helping to keep everyone safe with the protocols we have in place.”
“High school football and volleyball are huge pillars in our community each fall,” added Kern Dant, KLKN general manager. “We found it imperative to do everything we can to ensure that friends and family can watch during these trying times. We are your trusted news and sports source and if it matters to you it matters to us.”
LPS also is looking into other streaming possibilities for additional varsity competitions.
