LEWISBURG, Pa. - The start times for Bucknell's men's and women's basketball games at Colgate on Feb. 29 have been swapped in order to accommodate the YES Network, which will televise the Bison-Raiders men's game.
The men's game will now tip at 1 p.m., with the women's game to follow at 3:15 p.m.
The addition of the YES Network broadcast means that both of Bucknell's final two men's regular season games will be nationally televised. The team's Feb. 27 contest at Holy Cross is the Patriot League Television "Game of the Week" and can be seen on DirecTV, channel 615.
The YES Network is available to cable subscribers in New York, Connecticut, and large parts of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and it is also offered to DirecTV "Sports Pack" subscribers on channel 622.
Bucknell's men's squad has won seven of its last eight games and is tied for third place in the Patriot League at 6-3 (10-12 overall). The Bison defeated Colgate 61-53 in Lewisburg on Jan. 30. The Raiders are 11-10, 3-5, heading into Tuesday night's game at Holy Cross.
