(St. Louis, MO) – Saint Louis University and FOX Sports Midwest announced today that seven Billiken men’s basketball games will be carried on the network during the 2020-21 season.
The FOX Sports Midwest telecast schedule begins with Saturday’s game against Arkansas-Pine Bluff, which is set for a 7 p.m. tipoff at Chaifetz Arena. Dan McLaughlin, who for more than 20 seasons has called St. Louis Cardinals games for FOX Sports Midwest, will serve as the primary play-by-play voice for the fifth year in a row. Billiken Hall of Famer Scott Highmark returns as the analyst.
The agreement with FOX Sports Midwest was reached on behalf of SLU by its athletics multimedia rightsholder, Learfield IMG College’s Billikens Sports Properties.
“We are thrilled to renew our great partnership with FOX Sports Midwest,” SLU Director of Athletics Chris May said. “Building community is one of our strategic objectives, and the exposure generated from our TV schedule helps us reach that objective.”
All games airing on FOX Sports Midwest will also stream on FOX Sports GO to all subscribers in the FOX Sports Midwest footprint. Additionally, the games will be simulcast on ESPN+ through the Atlantic 10 Conference’s ESPN+ agreement.

I haven't heard, nor do I know, how does this apply to the typical 'foreign' basketball player that is most often over 19?
Obviously, this is a sentimental and not a ‘spreadsheet’ notion, but would hate to see @MVCsports change the #ArchMadness format from the traditional ‘family reunion’ feel by cutting teams from the experience. #FatherHarry
Another nice @MVCsports basketball schedule announcement. #FatherHarry . .
Congrats to @ISURedbirdGolf. T.J. Barger sets a school record. Pietro Pontiggia records the Redbirds' second-ever top 20 finish at a regional. The team finishes tent in the region which is tied for the program's best regional finish! #FatherHarry
