Wildcat Fastbreak Makes Season Debut Tonight

Jan. 3, 2012

EVANSTON, Ill. -- The only show that takes you behind the scenes of Northwestern basketball is back tonight (Jan. 3) when Wildcat Fastbreak returns to Comcast SportsNet Chicago!

Season two of Wildcat Fastbreak tips off with a look at the season to date for the Northwestern men and women's basketball programs. The episode will also take viewers into an offseason MMA-style training session with the men's team.

The show will debut Tuesday nights on Comcast SportsNet Chicago, then air Wednesday mornings on the Big Ten Network and again later in the week on CSN Chicago. Wildcat Fastbreak is hosted by WGN Radio Sports Director Dave Eanet. The show is produced as a partnership between Northwestern Athletics and the Medill School.

Men's basketball head coach Bill Carmody and women's basketball head coach Joe McKeown will each join Eanet in studio for the debut episode to review their teams' play in the non-conference season as well as the Big Ten openers.

An upcoming air schedule for Wildcat Fastbreak is listed below. Please note that times are subject to change due to live programming. The latest schedule for all Northwestern athletic programming can always be found at NUsports.com/OnTheAir.
