UNC is back in action Monday night when it hosts East Carolina at the Smith Center. It will be the Pirates’ first visit to Chapel Hill since 2014.
If you aren’t attending the game in person, here’s how you can follow along at home:
Broadcast Schedule
Those hoping to listen on the radio can do so at 97.9 FM and 1360 AM, or by streaming the radio broadcast on chapelboro.com.
97.9 The Hill’s radio broadcast of Monday’s game will begin at 6:30 p.m. with Countdown to Tip-Off. At 7 p.m., the broadcast will shift over to Jones Angell and the Tar Heel Sports Network for their pregame coverage until tip-off. They will also carry postgame coverage for approximately an hour after the conclusion of the game.
For preseason, regular season and ACC Tournament game broadcasts, you can access the stream (computer, tablet or phone) through chapelboro.com, TuneIN or most streaming apps, but you must be within 75 miles of Chapel Hill and have your location services for your device turned on. If you live more than 75 miles outside of Chapel Hill, you can access the Tar Heel Sports Network game broadcast stream through the Varsity Network.

TV Schedule
Television coverage of Monday’s game begins with tip-off at 8 p.m. The game will be broadcast on ACC Network. As of today, Spectrum, AT&T, Dish Network, Xfinity and DirecTV all carry ACC Network.
What if I don’t have cable?
A live stream will be available through the ESPN app or on ESPN.com. You will need to enter TV provider information to access this stream.
Additionally, several cord-cutting options carry ACC Network.
YouTube TV costs $83/month and carries the entire ESPN family of networks, including ACC Network.
Hulu TV starts at $89/month and includes ACC Network, but does not carry NBA TV or NFL Red Zone.
Sling TV is the cheapest at $57/month for the Orange + Sports Extra package. Be sure to avoid Sling Blue, as that package does not include ESPN or ACC Network.
