St. John Bosco and the NFHS Network will form an affiliate partnership to produce and live stream high school sporting events powered by students.
BELLFLOWER, CA, UNITED STATES, August 11, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — St. John Bosco High School is leading the way in bringing coverage of high school sports to the masses. On the heels of their partnership with For A Bright Future Foundation that brought a brand-new media lab to their campus and their subsequent plans to launch their own streaming network, Bosco+, St. John Bosco has now established an affiliate partnership with the NFHS Network.
The NFHS Network, operated by PlayOn! Sports, is the leading network for access to high school sports in the country, offering audiences unlimited access to live and on-demand games. St. John Bosco, as an NFHS Network Affiliate, will produce selected Bosco home and away games, and other games in the CIF Southern Section for the Network as a result of this new partnership. The NFHS Network will provide camera systems for the school’s baseball, basketball, football, lacrosse, soccer and swimming facilities as well as production software for the school’s media lab. Further, the NFHS Network will collaborate with St. John Bosco’s Film & Media Arts Pathway program on training and curriculum development for its students, who will produce each live event.
“St. John Bosco is thrilled to be at the forefront of this exciting step forward in high school sports media. By forming an affiliate partnership with the NFHS Network, the leader in high school sports broadcasting, we’re not only providing wider coverage for our championship-winning athletic programs to our fans, but we’re also providing an incredible learning opportunity to our Film & Media Arts Pathway students who will be producing the games. This step, made possible by the For a Bright Future Foundation Media Lab that opened at St. John Bosco in February, is huge for our school community and for high school sports across the country,” said Dr. Brian Wickstrom, St. John Bosco President & CEO.
“The NFHS Network is proud to partner with St. John Bosco to empower students to gain real-world experience in broadcast journalism through the prestigious Film & Media Arts Pathway program,” said David Rudolph, PlayOn! Sports CEO. “We look forward to seeing the talent of the student-broadcasters and student-athletes at St. John Bosco showcased to a wider audience.”
The Film and Media Arts Pathway is a professional industry preparation program at St. John Bosco designed to prepare students for collegiate film school. From screenwriting, production and design to directing and producing, students learn about the business of the media industry through a hands-on, project-based approach. Senior Film & Media Arts Pathway student Jerrod Montgomery is excited to get started. He said, “To have this opportunity to learn from the best in the business and to actually produce a game at a professional level for a platform like the NFHS Network is something I never thought I’d be doing in high school.”
The partnership will involve a multi-sport, student-powered production initiative for Bosco home and away games and will later expand to additional schools in Southern California to expand the broadcast web for the NFHS. St. John Bosco is set to distribute the replays of the live games on their forthcoming streaming platform, Bosco+. The partnership is slated to kick off with St. John Bosco’s National Championship winning football team’s home opener on Friday, August 18 versus Liberty High School.
“As the head football coach at St. John Bosco High School, I am extremely excited to be partnering with the NFHS Network this upcoming season,” said Head Coach Jason Negro. “Bosco Football has become a national brand, so this new venture will help us expand our program’s exposure across the entire country. This unique partnership will also provide professional level production experience for the talented students in our school’s Film & Media Pathway.”
Head Basketball Coach at St. John Bosco, Matt Dunn, expressed his excitement for the partnership as well. St. John Bosco’s basketball program had a historic 2023 season with the team advancing to the CIF Open Division Final for the first time in school history. He added, “Being able to offer this type of innovative opportunity to our students, both in the classroom and in our athletic programs, is what we’re all about at Bosco. Not only will our Pathway students get to learn from the best, but our athletes will get to play in front of a larger global audience.”
More information about the St. John Bosco vs Liberty football game, set to stream on the NFHS Network on Friday, August 18, will be available in the coming week.

Legendary saxophonist and music icon Johnny James Dr J has released his new EP, “How Deep Is Your Love,” which is being well-received by critics and music enthusiasts alike.
Johnny James Dr J has traveled the world performing to sold out venues with his brand of soulful smooth Jazz
Over the past four decades Dr J has been a major contributor to modern music and has helped define what quality music is for generations to come.
Johnny James Dr J assembled a dream team of the greatest musicians in the industry to produce a project that’s already creating a buzz on several continents.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, August 12, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Smooth Jazz is a musical genre that has long since anchored itself in the music industry as an undeniably relevant and powerful medium that spans across all demographics. With lush, harmonious vocals; laid back grooves that anyone could dance to, or at least tap their foot or snap their fingers to; and world-class musicians who showcase their instrumental skills, this facet of the industry has enjoyed widespread appeal across the globe.
Whether its the clean, shimmering musical flow of a legendary guitarist, or the skillfully crafted melodies and silky masterful riffs of a world-class saxophonist, the Smooth Jazz genre is cross-culturally distinct and diverse enough to please the musical palettes of everyone. And with the impact instrumentalists have felt from the influence of Jazz Fusion, it’s not uncommon to hear elements of Hip Hop and Rap in Smooth Jazz circles now.
The phenomenal new release of “How Deep Is Your Love,” the smoking hot EP from world-renowned Smooth Jazz extraordinaire, Johnny James Dr J, provides all of these things and then some. Dr J has once again created a sound that rises above an ocean of great artists, and reaffirms his position as one of the greatest who’s ever done it! Click on “IT’S DEEP” now to get your copy of this outstanding new recording!
The fact that Johnny James Dr J can put all of these diverse elements together and present a superior recording that is both cohesive and seamless is a feat in and of itself. But centering it around a 70’s classic… reintroducing yesterday’s monster hit song back into today’s cutting-edge music industry relevance…is yet another feather in Dr J’s cap. This recording is musically thoughtful and intrinsically inviting. “How Deep Is Your Love” is a must have for Jazz enthusiasts as well as lovers of all music.
“It’s been quite some time that my organization has been this excited about an EP release,” says Daniel Musgrove, founder and CEO of Musgrove Music Distribution. “To resurrect a song with such depth and global impact, and then re-insert it into the mainstream with such refreshing interpretations, is an amazing achievement on behalf of Mr. James. Musgrove Music Distribution is both delighted and honored for our involvement in this project.”
When asked why he chose “How Deep Is Your Love” to do a cover, Dr J had much to say. “First off, The Bee Gees is one of my favorite music groups from the 70’s. “How Deep Is Your Love” is my all-time favorite song by them, and in my opinion…one of the trio’s most beautiful ballads ever recorded. And hey…how powerful is it to ask that question to someone who you are in a serious relationship with: “How deep is your love?” It’s an incredible question to ask, and an amazing ballad to match.”
In the 80’s, during Dr J’s tenure as a member of Epic Records’ Pop-Dance group Will To Power, the group achieved international notoriety with their Peter Frampton/Lynyrd Skynyrd medley “Baby I Love Your Way/Freebird Medley.” This song was at the No. 1 spot for a week on the Billboard Hot 100, and reached No. 2 on the Billboard adult contemporary chart. In the UK, the song reached No. 6 on the UK Singles Chart. By the end of 1988, Will To Power’s self-titled album reached No. 68 on the Billboard 100 album chart. Over the next forty years, Dr J would travel the world as a solo artist, fronting his own bands and establishing his name in the music industry. In the interim, he has released multiple recordings which have received rave reviews and are highly acclaimed in the music industry.
During his career, Dr J has connected with and befriended a Who’s Who of prominent, accomplished music industry giants, of which several of whom have lent their skills toward his recording projects over the years. We can see that the “How Deep Is Your Love” project is no exception. Jeff Lorber, a Grammy Award winning keyboardist, plays keys on the project; Lorber has worked with industry legends such as Dave Koz, Eric Benet, and Herb Alpert to name a few; and Lorber is also credited for introducing saxophonist Kenny G to the mainstream. Darryl Tookes, who has done vocal work with the likes of Quincy Jones, David Foster, Sting, Diana Ross, Aretha Franklin, and Christina Aguilera (to name a few), performs vocals on the EP’s ‘Vocal Mix’ track. Chadwick Watkins is credited for his work on the EP’s “A W Remix,” and as an accomplished musician in his own right, he is credited with performing at Showtime At The Apollo; The White House; ‘America’s Got Talent’; BET’s ‘Bobby Jones Gospel’; and he has also performed extensively throughout the U.S., Europe, Africa, South-East Asia, and the Caribbean. And the late great legendary guitarist Chuck Loeb, who in his career received three Grammy Award nominations for his work in music, makes a posthumous appearance as a featured musician on this project.
Dr J also features an original track called “Jizay” on the EP, as well as a remix of his previously released song, “Slippin.” In his own words, “I have a little something for everybody in this project. The people have been asking for more music for some time, and I’m more than happy to provide it to them. And there’s much more to come.”
