CELINA-The Horizon Sports Network will kick off its second season of broadcasting Clay County High School sports here Friday night, August 17 as the live-stream audio affiliate of the Dale Hollow HORIZON newspaper carries the Clash on the Cumberland live from the Twin Lakes Broadcast Booth high atop Joe Neal Eads Stadium.

Play-by-play announcer Daniel Strong, analyst Thomas Weaver, and producer Rob Edwards are set to begin the 2018 season at 6 p.m. with the start of the Carquest Pregame show and the game between Clay County and Jackson County will kick off at 7 p.m.

“It doesn’t get any better than the Dawgs and the Blue Devils,” Strong, the voice of the Bulldogs, said. “To have a rivalry like that for our first broadcast of the season, you can’t ask for anything more.”

The broadcasts can be heard online at www.dalehollowhorizon.com and are made possible by a wide array of local sponsors. Each airing features all the normal aspects of a standard radio transmission, but listeners are not geographically limited by the small reach of radio towers–because they can follow the game from anywhere in the world using their computer, phone, or mobile device.

“And if they miss the game live, Bulldog fans can listen to the recorded archive of any contest anytime–an option not available with standard radio,” Weaver said. “Clay County players can even go back and listen to their games being called the next day or possibly even the same night.”
