The twenty four-seven local sports network will cover Pitt football and men’s basketball game broadcasts in addition to weekly shows with coaches Dave Wannstedt and Jamie Dixon.

“The University of Pittsburgh is incredibly proud to partner with KDKA, truly one of the legendary names in radio broadcasting,” Athletic Director Steve Pederson said in a press release.

“The launch of Sportsradio 93.7 The Fan has been a feast for sports fans throughout Western Pennsylvania and beyond.”

The women’s basketball games will also now be covered by 1320 WJAS-AM.

“Our arrangement to have WJAS carry every women’s basketball game live is also an exciting development,” Pederson said. “Whether it’s a Pitt football Saturday or the excitement of March Madness, the Panthers are going to enjoy comprehensive and unprecedented radio coverage thanks to this new partnership.”
