SHERIDAN — Last school year, with COVID-19 limiting capacities at many sporting events, the best way to watch all the local high school action might’ve been on your TV.
That, or your smartphone, computer or wherever you could access the NFHS Network.
The network is an online, subscription-based platform that streams live events and keeps them on demand for later viewing. It is used by Sheridan High School, Big Horn High School, Tongue River High School and Arvada-Clearmont High School. It enjoyed a big jump in viewership last year.
“I think the explosion has centered around the fact that COVID limited capacities,” Sheridan Activities Director Don Julian said. “So I’m very interested to see what this year will bring if we end up not having (COVID) restrictions at all — which, right now, we don’t. My gut feeling is, now that so many people got subscribed and did it this past year, they’re probably going to continue.”
