The Murray State Racers look to make history this week when they hit the road to finish the regular season with a pair of games at Morehead State and Eastern Kentucky and Racer fans can watch both games live on the Racer Television Network.
MSU is 16-0 and two wins from becoming just the fourth team in Ohio Valley Conference history to go undefeated in league play.
RTVN has the Murray State game at Morehead State Thursday at 6:45 p.m. central time and the Saturday game at Eastern Kentucky at 5:45 p.m.
All Racer TV Network games are available to the combined 85,000 subscribers of NewWave, Mediacom and Comcast at no additional charge.
NewWave customers see the games on channel 79 in all areas west of Kentucky Lake and channel 3 in Hopkinsville and Madisonville.
Mediacom subscribers in Marshall, Calloway, Trigg, and Caldwell Counties see the games on channel 23, except in Oak Grove, Ky., and Dover, Tenn., where the games are on channel 97.
Comcast viewers in McCracken and Massac Counties see the Racers on channel 17.
Veteran WCBL announcer Jeff Waters has the play-by-play, while Dave Winder, MSU Assistant AD for Media Relations will provide commentary.
The games are produced by Hopkinsville's WKAG-TV.
Murray State Athletics, NewWave Communications, Mediacom and Comcast will have brought seven Racer Basketball road games to fans by the end of the weekend and the venture in its second season has been a big success.
RTVN also aired the Murray State at Missouri State football game live last September.
