The MAAC has announced the ESPNU games and MAAC Tournament coverage for both the men and women. It's a bit complicated so I've linked the article.
Again, only 1 WBB game on ESPNU. That is Quinny at Rider on Thursday, January 9th at 11am. Due to the new dates for the tournament the Women's Championship Game will "air" on ESPNews. It has traditionally been on ESPNU. I assume ESPNews is a streaming only services. The price you pay for going up against the larger leagues on selection weekend.
The men have 5 ESPNU games but only Iona at Rider is scheduled. The other are flex games on various dates. Marist is in play for each of the flex dates. Unfortunately, due to the new tournament dates the men's finals will air on ESPNU at 4pm on Saturday of selection weekend, and not ESPN or the deuce in prime time as it has for many years. Rest of the tournament games are spread over ESPN3 and ESPNews.
I hope AC works out given this downgrade. Featured MAAC Hoops on the ESPN Family of Channels/streaming services
