Lehigh Football on TV
Distinctive and the model for which all other Division I Football Championship Subdivision television packages strive, Lehigh Athletics enters its 25th season of local, regional, and national football coverage on commercial television.  Lehigh broadcasts are the most-watched in the Patriot League (source: Nielsen).  Nationally, Lehigh football can be seen on both DirecTV and DISH Network, as well as on Fox College Sports (available in over 60 million homes via digital cable systems nationwide).  Regionally on FSN Pittsburgh, fans in Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Scranton and parts of Maryland, West Virginia, and Ohio can follow Lehigh football, while the WFMZ-TV signal can be seen in the Lehigh Valley, Philadelphia, Reading, and Western New Jersey.  Locally, Lehigh football home games can be seen in the Lehigh Valley on Service Electric Cable’s 2 Sports.  Service Electric is the area’s largest cable provider.

Nationally known and respected announcing teams plus high-quality production are also distinctions of Lehigh football telecasts.  Steve Degler (Lehigh Valley IronPigs baseball telecasts), former Lehigh quarterback and Penske Hall of Fame member Marty Horn ’86 and former Lehigh linebacker Mike Yadush '93 call the action on a national and regional level.  Locally, Mike Zambelli (Service Electric Sports Director) joins Yadush ‘93 to handle the announcing duties.

The Lehigh Sports Magazine Television Show
The Lehigh Sports Magazine airs nationally on Fox College Sports Atlantic several times each week. The show can be seen regionally and locally on Mondays in the Lehigh Valley and surrounding areas.  This half-hour show features Lehigh head coaches, student-athlete guests, highlights, and much more.  The show can also be seen on the Lehigh web site each Monday evening, and is available on-demand as part of the Lehigh on-line broadcast package.  WFMZ-TV sports anchor Jim Vaughn hosts the weekly show.

Lehigh on the Radio
Lehigh football can be heard on commercial radio exclusively on the home of Lehigh Athletics, ESPN Radio of the Lehigh Valley (1230 and 1320 AM). Well-respected veteran Matt Kerr is back to call the play-by-play for his 16th season. Kerr will be joined in the booth by former Lehigh standouts Kody Fedorcha '00 and Lance Haynes '94.  For the sixth consecutive season, ESPN Radio's Matt Markus will patrol the sidelines for every Lehigh football broadcast. Radio coverage begins an hour prior to kick-off, with Markus and ESPN Program Director Tom Fallon anchoring the pre-game, halftime, and post-game activities. 

ESPN Radio also broadcasts exclusive coverage of every Lehigh men’s basketball game, nearly all Lehigh wrestling dual meets, and up to ten Lehigh women’s basketball games.  All Lehigh women’s basketball games can be heard live on WLVR-FM, Lehigh University’s radio station.  Select wrestling matches, baseball and softball games will air on WLVR as well.
