GRAND FORKS, N.D.- Fox Sports North has agreed to broadcast Saturday afternoon's North Dakota-Yale NCAA Northeast Regional semifinal live from Worcester, Mass.
Fox Sports North obtained the rights from ESPN and will give Fighting Sioux hockey fans across the upper Midwest the ability to see the game live and in its entirety.
"We are very appreciative of the efforts of Mike Dimond and Ryan Sirvio at Fox Sports North and the service they will be providing to Fighting Sioux hockey fans all over the region," said UND athletics director Brian Faison.
"With our team playing so far from Grand Forks, the ability for our fans to see the game live on television is very important and Fox Sports North has come through for us in a big way."
Fox Sports North is available to 3 million homes throughout Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.
UND is the No. 2 seed in the Northeast Region and will take on the No. 3-seeded Yale Bulldogs at 4 p.m. from the DCU Center in Worcester, Mass.
If the Sioux win on Saturday, Sunday's regional championship game will be televised on ESPNU beginning at 4:30 p.m.
