Fox Sports Net will be on the BYU-Hawaii campus Feb. 26 to shoot footage for an upcoming "NCAA On Campus" program that will feature the Seasider basketball team.
The story will focus on the nine married players on the team this year. The Seasiders regularly feature the most married players of any team competing in NCAA II play but nine is an unusually large number, even for the Seasiders.
"NCAA On Campus" is a nationally televised program that features human-interest stories about student/athletes and the challenges they face in balancing their commitment to their sport with their academic pursuits.
The program featuring the Seasiders is scheduled to be aired on numerous Fox channels. The channels most readily available in Hawaii are Fox Sports Net West and Fox Sports Net West 2.
Broadcast dates and times for Fox Sports Net West are: Friday, March 19 at 3:00 pm PST (1:00 pm HST); Saturday, March 20 at 6:00 pm PST (4:00 pm HST); and Friday, March 26 at 2:00 pm PST (12:00 noon HST). The program will be aired on Fox Sports Net West 2 on Saturday, March 27 at 4:00 pm PST (2:00 pm HST).
The Thursday night game will also be a "Fan Appreciation Night" where all fans will be allowed into the game free of charge. Tip-off will be at 7:30 p.m. in the BYU-Hawaii Cannon Activities Center.
In last night's hoops action, the Seasiders clinched the Pacific West Conference title defeating rival UH-Hilo Vulcans 80-62. Click here for more details.
