Twitter has been named the premier streaming partner for Pac-12 Plus, a broadband network that’s poised to offer more than 150 live Pac-12 events in 2016 and 2017.

“The Pac-12 Networks’ collaboration with Twitter reflects our ongoing commitment to increasing exposure for Pac-12 universities and their live, school-produced events,” said Pac-12 Networks President Lydia Murphy-Stephans, in a statement. “By expanding our digital footprint, Pac-12 Plus also allows us to connect more fans with more, live Pac-12 sports content through a platform they use every day.”
