History

BCSN was founded in 2003 and first went on the air January 7, 2004, taking over sports programming previously carried on sister station WT05. The network began broadcasting some programming in 1080i high definition in April 2011 and ended a media partnership with CBS affiliate WTOL in December 2012 over service concerns, launching a second channel, BCSN 2, the following month. Starting in fall 2013, BCSN partnered with ABC affiliate WTVG, using WTVG's studios for some of its on-air sports shows. In 2018, BCSN began airing over-the-air from a low-power transmitter in Findlay, Ohio. In 2023, BCSN partnered with the Northern Lakes League to convert BCSN 2 into the NLL Network, spotlighting the conference's 11 member schools and their combined 10,700 students.
