I’m watching a replay of the the Big Ten lacrosse final on the Big Ten Network, so I looked at their schedule and see that they are not planning to show the Big Ten track and field meet this year, not live or in the week following. They do have a blank spot one day, so maybe they have it penciled in.
After watching several college track meets this year, I’m thinking that every competitor in the Big Ten track meet is a better athlete than everyone in this lacrosse game. The track meet deserves to be on TV just based on the high level of athletes in the competition.
Lacrosse is a cool game and I am glad they are putting it on TV, but why are they ignoring better athletes in their own conference?
