ANCHORAGE - University of Alaska Anchorage director of athletics Dr. Steve Cobb announced Wednesday that GCI Cable will televise Seawolf hockey games statewide for the fifth consecutive season.

GCI audiences in Anchorage, Barrow, Bethel, Cordova, Fairbanks, Homer, Juneau, Kenai, Ketchikan, Kodiak, Kotzebue, Nome, Petersburg, Seward, Sitka, Valdez, Wrangell and the Mat-Su Valley can watch 30 of UAA's 34 regular-season games during the 2009-10 season.

The broadcasts will include all 17 home contests, beginning with the opening game of the 2009 Kendall Hockey Classic Oct. 9 against Mercyhurst.

GCI will also televise 13 of UAA's 17 road games live back to Anchorage, including the Seawolves' series at WCHA foes Minnesota (Oct.30 & Nov.1), Wisconsin (Nov. 13-14), Denver (Jan. 8-9), St. Cloud State (Feb.5-6), and Minnesota State (Feb.19-20). UAA's games in the Brice Alaska Goal Rush (Oct.16-17) and the Alaska Airlines Governor's Cup game in Fairbanks will both be covered.

All home games will be televised live statewide with the exception of the Anchorage and Mat-Su areas, which will view the tape-delayed broadcast at 10:30 p.m. the same day, and repeating at 10 a.m. the next day. Kurt Haider, the voice of the Seawolves, will provide the play-by-play for all UAA games.

Viewers in Anchorage can watch all 30 televised games on GCI Cable Channel 1.


GCI will also provide live internet video streams of all the home UAA hockey broadcasts at www.GCI.net.. Additional links to the internet streams are available at GoSeawolves.com.


UAA students representing the school's journalism and public communications department will manage the cameras and produce the live broadcasts from Sullivan Arena.

In addition to the game broadcasts, GCI and the UAA journalism and public communications department will produce a weekly coach's show featuring Seawolf head coach Dave Shyiak. The show will air a half hour prior to each broadcast as well as at 8 p.m. each Wednesday.
