GRAND
FORKS, N.D. – Through
These Doors,
the student-produced series that takes viewers insider the locker room of the
University of North Dakota men’s hockey program, has been nominated for a 2013
Upper Midwest Regional Emmy.
It
is one of six nominees in the Best Sports Program Series category. Other
nominees include the Minnesota Wild Hockey Club’s Becoming Wild,
Midco Sports Network’s Midco Sports Magazine, and FOX Sports North’s
Vikings GamePlan, Wild Live and Woog
Remembers.
Through
These Doors
premiered during the 2011-12 season and offered UND fans unprecedented access to
one of the most storied programs in NCAA hockey. Produced and edited by UND
Athletics student interns, weekly episodes of Through These Doors aired
on UNDsports.com for the past two seasons and featured locker room, bench and
road trip access, high definition game highlights, and candid interviews with
student-athletes and coaches. In March 2012, the show was spotlighted in a
NYTimes.com article.
Earlier
this month, it was announced that the show would transition from a weekly
web-only series to a television series that will also air twice a month on Midco
Sports Network as part of the network’s Friday night UND
lineup.
The
winner will be announced at the 14th annual Upper Midwest Regional
Emmy Awards Gala on Saturday, Sept. 28, at the State Theater in
Minneapolis.
The
Upper Midwest Chapter of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences is a
membership organization dedicated to excellence in television by honoring
exceptional work, past and present; providing professional development and
outreach; and nurturing the next generation of television
professionals.
