USSE Corp. Produces The 2010 Ivy League Women's Lacrosse Tournament Championship Game
NEW YORK, June 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- USSE Corp., (Union Square) (Pink Sheets: UCRP) was contracted by the Ivy League to produce its women's lacrosse tournament championship game on Sunday May 2, 2010. The game took place at 12 noon EDT, at Franklin Field on the University of Pennsylvania campus and was broadcast in SD on CBS College Sports Network.
The game featured the Penn Quakers (13-3, 7-0 Ivy) hosting the Dartmouth Big Green (12-3, 5-2). While Penn took advantage of early Dartmouth turnovers, the Big Green did rally back to tie the score 7-7, before Penn came away with a hard-fought 9-8 win. The victory gave Penn the Ivy League's automatic bid to the 2010 NCAA Division I Women's Lacrosse Championship.
Union Square executed all elements of this production including all on-site execution, direction and management of the broadcast.
