MILWAUKEE -
The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee will stream 29 home fall sporting events live through the end of October as part of the Horizon League Network.
The schedule starts Saturday when the Panther women's soccer team hosts Michigan State in an exhibition match at Engelmann Stadium.
The 29 events during the first two-plus months of the school year mark just the beginning of an extensive streaming schedule for the Panthers through HLN. The balance of the fall schedule for the month of November will be set once UWM's basketball schedules are set. Then, Panther men's and women's basketball home games will again be streamed live through HLN all season long.
Matt Menzl and Nate Lisko return as the two main voices of Panther athletics in the fall. Menzl will call the majority of soccer matches while Lisko will be the voice of Panther volleyball.
In addition to the volume of home events, many of UWM's league road events are also available through the Horizon League Network via broadcasts from the host institution.
Live streaming of home events is just one part of UWM's extensive online video presence. The Black and Gold Network - the You Tube channel for Panther athletics - will again provide a variety of features, previews, postgame interviews and highlights. Last school year, the Black and Gold Network produced over 300 video features with more than 50,000 page views.
