The results for this year's Excellence in Broadcasting competition have been announced! With over 500 entries statewide, the competition was fierce. Stations competed against other stations in similarly sized markets (i.e., small, medium, and large). The competition includes both broadcasting and digital categories, and we also had a separate division for college stations.
