“When we selected our schedule for this season, we wanted to focus on the key games in our coverage areas each week,” said Marcus Carlton, Tubetown Local Content Manager. “In particular, we want to cover the region’s most spirited rivalries, the games that draw huge community and fan support. We’re extremely excited about the schedule we’ve put together.”
In addition to airing live on Tubetown’s broadcast channel - 21 in Northeast Arkansas and 11 in West Tennessee - each game will be available for free via live stream on YouTube.
