MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- Alabama State University fans will be able to watch and listen live to key Hornet basketball and baseball doubleheaders this Saturday live online at no charge.

It's the first basketball/baseball doubleheader webcasts on the same day on HorneTVision, the online channel of bamastatesports.com. The home Alabama State basketball doubleheaders against Alcorn State will be video streamed beginning with the women's game at 3 p.m., with the men's game to follow at 5 p.m.

Also starting at 3 p.m., Hornets' baseball will play the first of two Saturday games at the University of the Pacific. Game two of the doubleheader begins at 8 p.m. Fans can listen live online to both baseball games as well.



Since the Fall of 2011, more than 140 Hornet athletics contests and events have been video or audio streamed live on bamastatesports.com in a collaboration between the Athletics Department, the University's media center, the communications department, WVAS 90.7 FM, and University Administration. The combination of experienced professionals and talented, aspiring students work to produce and direct live athletics events, all while giving students real world, on-the-job training and preparation for exciting communications careers.

HorneTVision allows Alabama State alumni, parents, families, friends, and supporters to watch and/or listen to Hornet athletic contests and events – free on your computer or mobile devices.

Big games. Big moments. HorneTVision brings it right to you. Over the past three seasons, fans have been able to watch or listen to important games played by the ASU football, soccer, volleyball, women's and men's basketball, softball and baseball teams. Already in 2014, HorneTVision has video webcast the home basketball doubleheader sweep of Alabama A&M, as well as present an audio broadcast of baseball's historic win at Auburn.

This weekend, women's basketball looks to continue to strengthen its seeding for the upcoming SWAC Tournament, men's hoops is in second place and in the hunt for the regular season tournament title and postseason berth, and baseball looks to ride the momentum of its winning streak into an important road series on the West Coast.

The best way to support your ASU is in person, making your voice make a difference. However, if you just can't make it to the game in person, HorneTVision will take you there!
