In collaboration with ESPN and the Hawai‘i Tourism Authority, the third game of a 10-game distribution package on ESPN3 will take place on Thursday when UC Riverside travels to UC Irvine for a women's basketball matchup at 7:00 p.m.
The package opened on Friday, Nov. 25 with a women's volleyball match between Cal State Fullerton and Hawai‘i from Titan Gym. It continued on Tuesday, Dec. 6 when Hawai'i and Pacific met in Stockton for a men's basketball showdown.
UC Irvine is tied atop the Big West women's basketball standings at 5-2 with Cal State Northridge. The Anteaters had won five straight before having the streak snapped earlier this week in a non-conference home loss to Seattle.
The remainder of the ESPN3 package includes another women's basketball game, a men's basketball tournament semifinal game, an MPSF men's volleyball match, two baseball contests and a softball doubleheader. The next game in the package will be a women's basketball matchup pitting Central Coast rivals Cal Poly at UC Santa Barbara on Saturday, Feb. 4.
ESPN3 is currently available in more than 70 million households through computers, tablets and smart phones and in 25 million households via Xbox gaming consoles.
