Cream of the Creative-Video Crop Recognized at 15th-Annual SVG/NACDA College Sports Media Award

The college-sports-video-production community reunited at the Omni Atlanta Hotel for another celebration of the best creative content over the past year. The 15th-annual SVG College Sports Media Awards in association with NACDA, which was sponsored by Ross Video, gave away much-deserved hardware to institutions of all sizes.

Hosted by American Athletic Conference’s Director, Video Communications and Reporter, Morgan Uber, and FOX Sports’ College Basketball Broadcaster/Reporter and Big East Conference Digital Correspondent John Fanta, this awards show has become the premier event that honors professionals in collegiate athletics.

“There were a record number of entries this year,” said Fanta. “You all are the professionals that make our productions possible.”

Representing numerous departments, conference offices, professional networks, production companies, and students, finalists were named across six categories. Check out all of this year’s CSMA winners below and click HERE for the full list of nominations.
