Radio/UNHWildcats.tv

The UNH athletic department has formed the “UNH Sports Network” which began in 1999 to provide radio coverage of UNH athletics. Veteran play-by-play annoucer Jim Jeannotte has been broadcasting Wildcat athletics since 1973 and will continue to anchor the show. Wildcats Sports Properties has added WGIN-AM 930 (Rochester) and WQSO-FM (Portsmouth) 96.7 as flagship stations on the Wildcats Sports Network, joining WGIR-AM 610 (Manchester), which was added in 2008. All three stations are part of the Clear Channel family, which went into effect at the beginning of the 2009-10 athletic season. Wildcat fans are encouraged to buy the “Wildcat All-Access Pass” which is an annual subscription for $99.00 that provides not only all the live coverage of UNH home athletic events, but also premium content not available to view without the All-Access Pass. The premium content includes a behind the scenes look at UNH athletics through player and coaches interviews, highlights, podcasts, select post-game interviews and an in-depth archive section of all video available on UNHwildcats.TV. Fans can also purchase home events on a per game basis of $9.95.
