12 Cougar Men’s Basketball Games on TV
SIUE men’s basketball fans will see the Cougars on live television 10 times from the Vadalabene Center during the 2015-16 season and 12 times overall. FOX Sports Midwest (FSM) will have the call for eight of the games.
This is the fourth-consecutive year that the Cougars will appear on FSM, the regional sports network that also features St. Louis Cardinals baseball and St. Louis Blues hockey.
“We are very proud of our relationship with FOX Sports Midwest,” said SIUE Director of Athletics Dr. Brad Hewitt. “This opportunity for the University and Cougar basketball to reach millions of homes is exposure that we could not otherwise afford.”
FSM coverage begins Friday, Nov. 13, at 8 p.m. when the Cougars welcome Arkansas State for the regular-season home opener.
The Cougars host Saint Louis Wednesday, Nov. 18 at 7 p.m. SIUE and the Billikens are meeting for the fourth-consecutive season.
