(St. Louis, MO) – Saint Louis University and FOX Sports Midwest announced today that seven Billiken men’s basketball games will be carried on the network during the 2020-21 season.
The FOX Sports Midwest telecast schedule begins with Saturday’s game against Arkansas-Pine Bluff, which is set for a 7 p.m. tipoff at Chaifetz Arena. Dan McLaughlin, who for more than 20 seasons has called St. Louis Cardinals games for FOX Sports Midwest, will serve as the primary play-by-play voice for the fifth year in a row. Billiken Hall of Famer Scott Highmark returns as the analyst.
The agreement with FOX Sports Midwest was reached on behalf of SLU by its athletics multimedia rightsholder, Learfield IMG College’s Billikens Sports Properties.
“We are thrilled to renew our great partnership with FOX Sports Midwest,” SLU Director of Athletics Chris May said. “Building community is one of our strategic objectives, and the exposure generated from our TV schedule helps us reach that objective.”
All games airing on FOX Sports Midwest will also stream on FOX Sports GO to all subscribers in the FOX Sports Midwest footprint. Additionally, the games will be simulcast on ESPN+ through the Atlantic 10 Conference’s ESPN+ agreement.

Three more road wins so far in @ValleyHoops as @BradleyUMBB @BelmontMBB & @UIC_MBB capture road wins. Looks like @DrakeBulldogsMB will do so too. #FatherHarry
Well @RacersWBB followed the men's example and swept Iowa in the @ValleyHoops race! Racers are 6-1 & if @BelmontWBB holds on to their Iowa sweep, the Bruins and Racers will be tied for first. What a trip for those two teams! #FatherHarry
After today's action, @EIUWBB is 8-0 in @OVCSports play. 4 teams @usiwbb @TTUWBB @LRTrojans @LindenwoodWBB are tied at 6-2. Six other teams are under .500. Great race to the finish lies ahead. #FatherHarry
Really entertaining game between @BelmontMBB & @UEAthletics_MBB. Under four minutes left in a one point game. Gabriel Pozzato back in the Aces' lineup. Rogers is playing like I've expected. Triples are dropping. It's fun and @kylejpeach bringing it on #ThePlus #FatherHarry
