Penn Relays gets national TV coverage

 

The 119th edition of the Penn Relays - the oldest and biggest track meet in the United States - will be broadcast live from Franklin Field on Saturday, April 27th, by NBC from 1-3 p.m. EST.

NBC had originally planned to air the meet live from 1:30-3, but announced last week that it was extending its coverage. This new time slot will cover most of the USA vs. the World relay races, which have featured star athletes like Usain Bolt and Allyson Felix in the past.

From 3-5 p.m., live coverage of the Penn Relays will switch over to NBC Universal as the prestigious meet, which spans the entire weekend, comes to an end.
