NSPN covers a wide selection of games. Take a look at their broadcast schedule. For example today, you can watch the State cross country meet.

For the price, it's worth taking a look. MIDMNSPORTS is not affiliated with NSPN, I just wanted sports fans to know of the options available.
Also a reminder, be aware of the many scam websites that are on Twitter and Facebook. They all look good and official but they are not. Those sites want your credit card information and will not have a live stream. You'll only see the correct streaming information on MIDMNSPORTS.
