STONY BROOK, N.Y. — Already broadcasting all basketball games on the Worldwide Leader in Sports, Stony Brook University Athletics is set to announce its fall broadcast schedule, which includes the first-ever broadcasts of home men's and women's soccer, as well as volleyball, on ESPN platforms.

Starting with the men's soccer season opener on Thursday, August 26, all three fall programs will be featured on ESPN3 and ESPN+ as part of an expanded broadcast schedule through the America East on ESPN.

"We're excited to bring more of our outstanding programs to the ESPN platform," Director of Athletics Shawn Heilbron said. "As we continue to expand our brand to a wider audience, our productions on ESPN play a vital role." 

Head coach Ryan Anatol's club will take on local rival LIU at 6 p.m., at LaValle Stadium to kick off Stony Brook's 2021-22 television slate that will include at least seven sports on ESPN platforms with the potential to add postseason games later.

Women's Soccer will debut on ESPN+ on Sunday, August 29, when they battle Columbia at 1 p.m., at home, while volleyball's debut on the platform will be September 7, in the Battle of Long Island against Hofstra. 

Along with three of Stony Brook's fall sports, the deal also includes both men's and women's basketball programs for the seventh season, and men's and women's lacrosse for their upcoming campaigns.
