"Good Karma Brands has been a tremendous teammate over the years, and we are thrilled that 94.5 ESPN Milwaukee will again be the radio destination for Marquette fans," said Marquette University Vice President and Director of Athletics, Bill Scholl. "It takes community-wide support to operate a program at the level of Marquette basketball and Craig Karmazin and his team are an important piece of this equation. We are excited that this relationship will extend into the future."
"We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Marquette University and continue to produce high-quality broadcasts and content for their passionate fanbase," said Greg Scalzo, market manager for GKB Milwaukee, which owns and operates 94.5 ESPN Milwaukee, 620 WTMJ, and 101.7 The Truth. "Marquette basketball has a rich tradition and a passionate fan base, and we are committed to delivering the best coverage and content to our fans."
As part of this agreement, ESPN Milwaukee will provide live play-by-play broadcasts of all Marquette men's basketball games, along with pre-game and post-game analysis. Fans can also look forward to an increase in easily accessible digital content and exclusive interviews with coaches and players, giving them an unparalleled view into the Marquette basketball program.
In addition to game broadcasts, 94.5 ESPN Milwaukee will feature a weekly "Marquette Basketball Hour" on Thursday nights throughout the season. GKB Milwaukee and Marquette Athletics will engage with the Marquette community through special events, fan experiences, and social media interactions.
This partnership extension reaffirms ESPN Milwaukee's and Marquette Athletics' commitment to providing exceptional sports coverage and fostering a strong connection with the Milwaukee community.
