WZQZ Will Not Be Able To Live Stream Trion vs St Francis on Friday – Will Be Radio Only

WZQZ received word from the GHSA on Tuesday afternoon that our station will not be able to live video stream the Trion vs St Francis Game on Friday night.  This is due to the fact that St Francis is part of the NFHS network and the GHSA along with NFHS owns all of the broadcast rights to all playoff games for schools who are a part of the NFHS network in the state of Georgia.

WZQZ will be able to broadcast the game on 99.1 FM and AM 1180 but we cannot live video stream the game on Facebook.  WZQZ will set up an audio-only link on Facebook so listeners that live outside of the WZQZ coverage area can listen to the game.

Trion fans that wish to pay a fee to view a video stream of the game can do so on the NFHS network Click Here.

WZQZ hates to break this news to our listeners but unfortunately this is an issue that is beyond our control.  WZQZ must follow the rules that the GHSA has put in place.  Remember, the game will still be carried on the radio, we just will not be able to provide the live video stream.
