SPORTS RADIO NETWORK TO WEBCAST NASSAU COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PLAYOFFS
November 13, 2001

Sports Radio Network (http://www.sportsradionet.com) will undoubtedly become the home for the 2001 Nassau County High School Football playoffs.

WSRN will embark in unchartered waters, as the internet-based station has announced that they will be presenting live and exclusive coverage of the entire post-season, which begins Thursday afternoon from Hofstra University.

Over the next three weeks, Sports Radio Network will be webcasting a total of 16 games, which includes live coverage of the Conference Semifinals, Conference Finals and the Long Island Championships.

The audio webcasts can be all accessed from Sports Radio Network's official web-site at http://www.sportsradionet.com.

Additionally, a recorded version of each webcasted game will be available in the game archive section of Sports Radio Network's web-site.

"This is a tremendous opportunity for us," said play-by-play announcer and WSRN's CEO Rob Goldenberg. "This is the culmination of the season not only for us, but for the teams involved in the post-season."

Launched this past season, The High School Football Game of the Week combines the talents of Goldenberg and color analyst Alon Avital behind the mic.

"Our vision is to become a complete source for Nassau County High School Football, said Avital.

WSRN, which is attempting to capitalize on the growing popularity of web-based sports programming, already holds the exclusive broadcast rights to the United States Basketball League's Long Island Surf.

Last season, WSRN webcasted 13 regular season games, as well as presented exclusive live coverage of the 2001 USBL Championship tournament from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Additionally, WSRN maintains the Surf's official team website http://www.longislandsurfonline.com.

Dedicated to the production and broadcasting of high quality live sporting events and other sports entertainment, Sports Radio Network is unique in that it targets local professional and high school teams that have limited radio or television exposure.

"I feel that there is a legitimate niche that we can fill especially in the New York area where there are so many professional sports teams. There is a crowded radio and television schedule already, but that doesn't diminish the interest in some of the teams that don't get as much publicity as the big boys do," said Goldenberg.

With the rights to the USBL's Long Island Surf already in place, and the recently added High School Football Game of the Week in full swing, WSRN is primed to makes its mark within sports webcasting.
