The popular TDR TV amateur wrestling TV program will be now available to wrestling fans in Pennsylvania's Central Susquehanna Valley area, thanks to a partnership between Takedown Wrestling Media and CCN.
TDR TV's first broadcast on CCN Channel 8 in Danville, Lewisburg, Milton and Watsontown will be 5 pm Friday September 10.
TDR TV is a 30-minute weekly TV show that covers all aspects of amateur wrestling in the U.S. Host Scott Casber updates viewers on the latest developments in high school, college and international wrestling, conducts insightful interviews with the sport's top wrestlers and coaches, and shares his passion for the "oldest and greatest sport" in a fun, fast-paced show.
"Pennsylvania's Central Susquehanna Valley is a hotbed for championship wrestling at both the high school and collegiate levels," said CCN Managing Producer Larry Zapotocky. "We are pleased to be adding Takedown Wrestling Media's news program, TDR TV, for all of our subscribers who appreciate this outstanding and demanding sport."
Casber, founder of Takedown Wrestling Media, said, "This is an important step forward for athletes, coaches and fans of wrestling across the country. CCN Channel 8 is a historical name in cable. They also understand the wrestling community. This is a special opportunity to partner with CCN in the distribution of TDR TV."
"CCN will present our weekly TV program in the eastern U.S., where collegiate wrestling got its start more than a century ago, and is home to a number of great programs like Bucknell, Bloomsburg, Lock Haven and others," said Casber, who also hosts the long-running Saturday morning Takedown Radio program available on the radio and online. "In addition, we'll now be in a part of the country that features some of the best high school wrestling programs in the nation."
TDR TV is now available in approximately 2 million homes on the Mediacom cable TV system serving six Midwestern states, Time Warner Sports NY, and Comcast Cable in Tennessee. The program may also be viewed online at www.TakedownRadio.com and at over thirty other affiliated amateur wrestling web sites.
