I listened to all 3 Paradise Jam games via live stream on the Internet over the weekend through ESPN 97.9 Hartford. I'm in California. If I can get the games via the net, you should too.

If you can't access 97.9, try ESPN Radio 1300 - New Haven's Sport Station, or WAVZ 1300 AM.

Note - Replay of all 3 games from the Virgin Islands were posted here in the yard within a couple of hours after the final horn. You should be able to enjoy the games one way or another. :)

Scoop, me too. Way down south in Va I listened to the games. They were great. My hearing is miserable but I heard much of it. I was impressed by the play by play. I'm usually asking---What did he say, but not this crew. If I can get them during the TV games it will be internet voice TV video..

I get the men and women now clear as a bell using the internet's "Tune-in Radio" app. It's free and the only way to get decent reception here in Orange (near New Haven). The 97.9 here in New Haven is a Spanish speaking station. UConn's 97.9 only works in the greater Hartford area. Because of a delay in the radio broadcast, I found that I can pause the TV and sync the radio broadcast to the TV. I found all this out by complaining to the athletic department after the first road game and they hooked me up via email with Bob Joyce who clued me in. Bottom line...............get the tunein radio app.

I'm in Ct. THE FM STATION DID NOT COME IN. The 1300 came and went. Sad they discontinued WTIC.

Tune-in radio beats WTIC hands down. It's a strong steady signal!

FYI. I listen to UConn games using my Amazon Echo or Amazon Dot which included the iTunes Channel for "UConn IMG Sports Network".

I’m in the New Haven area and the Virgin Island games came in pretty clearly on regular radio at 1300 AM.
