Season 7 of America East On Campus Rolls On - AmericaEast.com

DURHAM, N.H. – Episode 2 of season seven of America East On Campus, the conference’s half hour magazine show highlighting what’s happening around the conference, debuts this weekend on Saturday, Jan. 28 at 7 p.m. on Comcast SportsNet throughout New England with subsequent airings on CSN and the Mid Atlantic Sports Network (MASN).

The season’s second episode is set on campus at the University of New Hampshire where we meet Chris Zarkosie, a student-athlete at UNH who is part of a unique program called Operation Hat Trick. Hatched in 2007 by UNH, Operation Hat Trick distributes hats to wounded and recovering members of the military, many of whom have suffered head traumas. Episode two also takes a look at how America East student-athletes are helping their communities.

Host Eric Frede also visits the University at Albany to discuss the strong start to conference play for the women’s basketball team led by Julie Forster and Ebone Henry. Frede then ventures to Orono, Maine for a look at the worldly travelers on the Maine men’s basketball team, which features players from six different countries on its roster. The episode concludes with a feature on the inspirational Bailey O’Brien, a Boston University diver who has come back from cancer twice to compete for the Terriers.

America East On Campus is produced by Cod Rock Media of Kittery, Maine, which is owned by Frede and Dan Hannigan. Four original episodes will be produced and distributed this year. Comcast SportNet in New England will debut all four episodes, while several re-airings will also air on the network. MASN, located in the Baltimore/Washington D.C. area, will also carry the show, as will Time Warner Cable in New York.

The show will also be available in the All-Access section of AmericaEast.com and on the conference's YouTube page following the debut airing. IPhone and Android users with the America East On the Go premium app can also watch the show on those devices.
