GREENSBORO, N.C. – ACC Network (ACCN) the new, 24/7 national platform launching on August 22, 2019, will elevate the ACC's field hockey, women's soccer and volleyball programs with unprecedented national television coverage this fall. Syracuse fans can watch more of the Orange all year long.
Â
ACCN will exclusively televise 62 field hockey, women's soccer and volleyball games in its debut year – representing a 90 percent increase in the number of ACC women's events available on an ESPN linear network over last year and the most live, national coverage of ACC women's fall sports ever.
Â
Fans can watch head coach Nicky Adams make her Syracuse debut when women's soccer hosts Colgate on Sunday, Aug. 25 in the season opener. Adams was introduced as the fourth head coach in program history in February.
Â
Field hockey opens ACC play against Virginia on Friday, Sept. 20 at Coyne Field on ACCN. Head coach Ange Bradley returns 14 players in 2019, including NFHCA All-Region Carolin Hoffmann.
Â
The Syracuse volleyball squad is coming off one of the best seasons in program history as head coach Leonid Yelin led his team to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 2018. ACCN will broadcast three of the Orange's games this season. Syracuse makes its ACCN debut at Florida State on Sunday, Oct. 20. Fans can also watch the Orange take on Notre Dame in South Bend on Sunday, Nov. 17 and at home against Clemson on Sunday, Dec. 1 on Senior Day.
Â
Volleyball and women's soccer will each have a dedicated night of live programming each week with volleyball airing on Wednesdays, and women's soccer Thursdays throughout the regular season, with additional matches on Sundays. ACC field hockey games will be showcased on Fridays and Sundays throughout the fall. ACCN will also televise the quarterfinals, semifinals and final of the ACC Field Hockey Championship, as well as the quarterfinal and semifinal rounds of the ACC Women's Soccer Championship.
Â
Technology and innovation will be at the forefront of ACCN's coverage of women's soccer as telecasts will feature ESPN's exclusive "Keeper Cam" goal post camera system currently used on ESPN's Major League Soccer productions. The technology utilizes cameras mounted inside the goal posts to provide unique views of the area in front of the goal, as well as straight down the goal line. The ACC will be the first and only collegiate conference to deploy the camera system.
Â
Carriage agreements are already in place with the following video providers: Altice, DIRECTV, Google Fiber, Hulu Live TV, Optimum, PlayStation Vue, Suddenlink, TVision and Verizon Fios, among others. All ACCN games will also be available on the ESPN App to authenticated cable subscribers. Fans interested in learning more about ACCN can visit www.GetACCN.com. Â
