Butler to begin streaming schedule with webcast of Basketball Media Day

Nov. 9, 2005

Butler Athletics will give fans a preview of both the men's and women's basketball teams with a free live video stream of Wednesday's (Nov. 9) Butler Basketball Media Day remarks on www.butlersports.com. Butler will also stream the women's exhibition against the Hoosier Lady Stars live Wednesday night beginning at 7:30 p.m. Fans can access the streams through the Upcoming Events heading on the main page of the site.

The video stream for media day will begin with tape-delayed remarks from Horizon League commissioner Jon LeCrone and Butler president Bobby Fong. The tape-delayed portion of the stream will begin at approximately noon and feed into live comments by women's head coach Beth Couture and men's coach Todd Lickliter. The "Voice of the Bulldogs" Chris Denari will emcee the event.

Under a new plan put in place during the offseason by the Horizon League Executive Council, all league men's and women's conference games will be available via video streaming on the league's official web site at www.horizonleague.org. All games not cleared on television will be shown live on the web through a partnership with College Sports TV Online, which also is the web provider for five league schools and the conference office.
