-HS Ad, the long-running in-house agency for LG Electronics, has launched “The Rivalries,” a six-part original TV series telling the inside stories behind some of the most competitive head-to-head team contests across the spectrum of college sports. It debuted March 24 on NCAA Championships Channel, the new streaming channel available exclusively on LG Smart TVs.
The series looks at some of the less well-known but longest-running and more competitive rivalries in college sports, including the “Black Hills Brawl” fought annually between Black Hills State University and the South Dakota School of Mines in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference, the oldest Division II rivalry dating back to 1885.
