INDIANAPOLIS -- Horizon League men's basketball is available throughout North America, through Sirius Satellite Radio. Nine more League games will air live on the service through the end of February, the League office announced Thursday (Jan. 31).
The list of contests starts with Thursday night's (Jan. 31) meeting between the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay (11-8, 5-4 Horizon League) and host Wright State University (12-6, 5-4), two teams currently tied for fourth place in the League standings. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. (Eastern time) at Wright State's Ervin J. Nutter Center, with the broadcast available on Sirius Channel 107. Action continues Saturday (Feb. 2) when the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee comes to Wright State for a 7 p.m. showdown, also on Sirius Channel 107.
The Sirius Satellite Radio schedule includes seven other League games in February, beginning on Thursday, Feb. 7, when Cleveland State University (14-7, 7-2) hosts Wright State on Sirius Channel 130. That 7:30 p.m. (Eastern time) contest is a re-match from CSU's 65-63 victory in Dayton on Jan. 12.
League front-runner Butler University (19-2, 8-2 and currently ranked 12th in the nation) hits the Sirius airwaves on Saturday, Feb. 9, when the Bulldogs visit Green Bay. That contest is scheduled to air on Sirius Channel 143, while a Monday, Feb. 11, battle between Valparaiso University (14-7, 5-4) and the University of Illinois at Chicago (10-10, 4-5) is slated for Sirius Channel 130.
