Charlottesville, Va. – WINA Radio (AM 1070), the flagship station for University of Virginia athletics, and Cavalier Sports Marketing announce a seven-game broadcast schedule of the national champion UVa men’s lacrosse program this season. The schedule includes six regular-season match-ups and the Cavaliers’ semifinal contest in the ACC Tournament. In addition, WINA will provide complete play-by-play coverage of the ACC Tournament championship game if UVa is involved as well as any Virginia NCAA Tournament contests.
The games will be broadcast on WINA-AM 1070, in Charlottesville and streamed worldwide on the Internet at www.virginiasports.com.
“Having WINA broadcast our games on the radio is one of the most exciting recent developments for our program and the local lacrosse community,” said Cavalier head coach . “It is a tremendous benefit for fans unable to attend the games to have immediate access to those events. We are excited to be working closely with WINA to produce the very best broadcasts possible.”
“Voice of the Cavaliers” Mac McDonald and WINA Sports Director Jed Williams deliver the excitement over the airwaves as the Cavaliers seek another national championship. Former Cavalier standout Doug Tarring adds color commentary.
“You simply can’t get much better than Virginia lacrosse,” Williams said. “Two national titles in five years is quite a feat, and Coach Starsia has the Cavaliers in position to remain an elite program for a long time to come. Now fans can follow the Cavaliers as they chase another championship and WINA is proud to provide coverage of the team throughout the season.”
Broadcasts begin 15 minutes prior to faceoff with full pregame coverage and conclude with a comprehensive postgame wrap-up featuring coach and player interviews, analysis, and scores from around the nation.
