SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Syracuse University Athletics and Galaxy Media Partners will continue their partnership that dates back to 2007. The five-year extension of the broadcast agreement that features all regular-season and post-season games for football, men’s and women’s basketball and men’s lacrosse, will now be in effect until the 2024-25 seasons. Galaxy Media Partners’ TK99 (99.5FM, WTKW) will continue to serve as the flagship station for the Syracuse Sports Network from Learfield IMG College.

“Our partnership with Galaxy is impactful for all of Syracuse Athletics,” said Director of Athletics John WIldhack. “The passion and dedication that Ed Levine and his entire staff have for all of our Orange teams is evident in all that they do, including play-by-play coverage, coaches’ shows and appearances, and hosting special guests on the entire family of Galaxy stations. We appreciate this partnership and look forward to creating many more opportunities to continue to enhance our marketing efforts and grow our presence in the Syracuse community and beyond.”

Galaxy will air all network programming, including game coverage, weekly radio shows for head football coach Dino Babers and head men’s basketball coach Jim Boeheim during their respective seasons, and daily Orange Slice segments that provide highlights on all Syracuse University sports teams. In addition, Galaxy stations also host regularly scheduled in-season appearances by head women’s basketball coach Quentin Hillsman and head men’s lacrosse coach John Desko, and several hours of daily locally produced programming that heavily features Syracuse University Athletics.

The agreement with Galaxy Media was secured by Syracuse Sports Properties of Learfield IMG College, the university’s athletics multimedia rightsholder which also manages all aspects of the radio network.

“The relationship with Syracuse University Athletics and Learfield IMG College is one of our most valuable partnerships,” said Galaxy Media Partner CEO Ed Levine. “I am very proud of what has been accomplished during the last 12 years and am excited about the many new enhancements we will implement during the course of this tremendous partnership.”

“Galaxy Media has proven to be a fantastic partner on multiple levels for Syracuse Athletics and for us here at Learfield IMG College and Syracuse Sports Properties,” said Kerry Atkinson, general manager for Syracuse Sports Properties. “We see this extension as a natural fit as we all embark on an exciting time for our teams, corporate partners and Orange fans throughout New York.”
