Carolina heads to Las Vegas this week for two neutral-site games as part of the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Challenge. The first game is a marquee matchup, as the Tar Heels will face No. 3 UCLA Thursday night. The Bruins are coming off an appearance in the NCAA Tournament’s Final Four this past spring.
If you aren’t in Las Vegas with the team, 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 the game will begin at 8:30 p.m. Eastern time with the Tar Heel Sports Network’s Matt Krause hosting the Reed’s Jewelers Pre-Game Show, which runs until tip-off. Krause will also host a brief postgame show after the conclusion of the game.

TV Schedule
Television coverage of the game begins with tip-off at 9 p.m. Eastern. The game will be broadcast on ESPN2. As of today, Spectrum, AT&T, Dish Network, Xfinity and DirecTV all carry ESPN and ESPN2.
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 ESPN and ESPN2.
Hulu TV starts at $89/month and includes ESPN2, but does not carry NBA TV or NFL Red Zone.
Sling TV is the cheapest at $46/month for the Orange package. Be sure to avoid Sling Blue, as that package does not include ESPN or ESPN2.
