POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y.
- The Marist football team's game against Bucknell on Saturday, Sept. 8
will be broadcast live on the radio on Rock 93.3 FM, Clear Channel Radio of the
Hudson Valley and the Marist Athletics Department announced on Thursday.
Clear Channel Vice President and Market Manager Chuck
Benfer said, "This is a very exciting opportunity for us in bringing Marist football
to our Rock 93.3 listeners. Marist plays such an important role in the Hudson
Valley as well as our community and it is our honor to be partnered with Marist
in broadcasting their football and basketball games. This home opener is really
special to us and since the Renegades playoff game is running on our WKIP
Newstalk Network, having Marist on Rock 93.3 this week makes great sense."
The game will kick off at 6:08 p.m. EDT at Tenney
Stadium, and the pregame show will begin at 5:45. Ed Weir, who is in his 35th
year broadcasting Marist football, will handle the play-by-play duties. Geoff
Brault, who is also the play-by-play voice of Marist women's basketball, is in
his sixth year providing color analysis for Marist football home games.
A free audio stream of the game will be available for
free on GoRedFoxes.com, and fans can also listen to the game on their mobile
device or tablet through the iHeartRadio app.
