ESPN reports 10-year pact with Ivy League, says most content going to ESPN+.

ESPN and the Ivy League have announced a comprehensive, 10-year deal for ESPN to become the exclusive national media rights holder for the conference, carrying more than 1,100 events annually from more than 30 sports on ESPN media platforms. The majority of those will be exclusively available on ESPN+, the new direct-to-consumer sports streaming service launching April 12 from The Walt Disney Company's Direct-to-Consumer and International division in partnership with ESPN, the company stated. The Ivy League will also have at least 24 events air on ESPN's linear networks each year, ESPN noted.
