The University Interscholastic League (UIL) football state championships will be broadcast by Nexstar and Mission Broadcasting, according to an announcement Friday.
The agreement covers the annual championship games held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The UIL oversees high school athletics in Texas, and its football championships are among the most attended high school sporting events in the United States.
Last December, Smithson Valley captured the Class 5A Division I title with a 28-6 victory over Frisco Lone Star, as linebacker Colton Hornsby celebrated with the championship trophy.
Financial terms and specific broadcast schedules were not disclosed.
