MONROE, La. - ULM and Cumulus Broadcasting are excited to announce a new partnership
that will bring Warhawk football to the airwaves of the Shreveport/Bossier City
area beginning with the 2010 season. SuperTalk 1340 has joined the Warhawk
Radio Network to broadcast all of ULM's football games and weekly Hawk Talk
Football Coach's Show.
"We're excited to partner with KRMD AM-SuperTalk 1340 to carry our football
games and our weekly editions of Hawk Talk this fall," ULM Athletic Director
Bobby Staub said. "We have a significant number of ULM alumni and fans in and
around the Shreveport/Bossier market, so this was an initiative we felt we
needed to pursue."
SuperTalk 1340 has a signal that stretches into east Texas and south Arkansas
to give ULM a four-state over-the-air broadcast area for its football games -
Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. North Louisiana's home to the
Dallas Cowboys, SuperTalk 1340 also broadcasts ESPN's Mike and Mike, the
Shreveport-Bossier Captains and other ESPN Radio programs.
"We are very excited at Cumulus to be broadcasting all of ULM's football games
this season on KRMD AM-SuperTalk 1340," Cumulus Broadcasting-Shreveport/Bossier
General Manager Susan Lucchesi said. "Our exclusive ESPN affiliation in the
Shreveport/Bossier City market makes this a perfect fit. I hope all the
ULM fans and alumni will enjoy every minute of what looks to be an exciting
season for the Warhawks."
Fans that are unable to hear the Warhawks on the radio will still have the ability
to catch all of the Warhawk Radio Network broadcasts online at ulmwarhawks.com. Veteran play-by-play man Frank Hoffmann returns for his 35th season as the "Voice of the Warhawks", Bruce Hanks returns for his seventh season with the Warhawk Radio Network and will once again handle the color analyst duties and Amanda (Joseph) May will roam the sidelines for her second season.
ULM opens the season on Sept. 11 against No. 17 Arkansas in Little Rock, Ark.
Kickoff is scheduled for 6 p.m. and the game will be televised by Fox Sports
Net in addition to the radio broadcast.
