The IHSAA Champions Network
How popular are
high school sports in
Indiana?
Based on the performance of the IHSAA Champions Network,
they’re enjoying more exposure than ever before!
The granddaddy platform on the network, one that generates
thousands of dollars of revenue for the IHSAA every year,
is the Champions Radio Network (CRN), which has been
broadcasting high school football and basketball tournament
games in Indiana since 1997. And believe it or not, the network
has more affiliate stations and carries more tournament games
now than any time in its 23-year history.
