WRHU Student Broadcasters Proudly Produced & Distributed New York Islanders Live Game Radio Broadcasts For 14th Consecutive NHL Season!
The 2023-24 NHL season was the 14th consecutive year all NY Islanders live game broadcasts air on WRHU FM Radio Hofstra University. Hofstra students once again produced, engineered, and performed on-air roles on all NY Islanders live game broadcasts across a network of stations and platforms. WRHU students have produced and distributed over 1,100 live game broadcasts of NY Islanders hockey since 2010. Amazing! For the 2023-24 season WRHU staff produced Islanders games that aired on ESPN Radio New York City (1050AM or 98.7FM) Sirius / XM, "LI News Radio" WRCN FM Long Island, WRHU FM, and NHL.com /Game-Center App. In previous seasons Hofstra students at WRHU produced Islanders live game broadcasts that aired on sports radio WFAN AM/FM NYC, WCBS 880AM NYC, 970 AM The Answer NYC, 570 AM The Mission NYC, WNYE FM NYC, and Radio.com. Students work with Islanders play-by-play broadcaster Chris King, commentator Greg Picker, and John Mullen (who oversees NY Islanders Radio Network broadcast operations).
How good is the NY Islanders game content created by Radio Hofstra University students you may ask? It is at the same professional level as the most prestigious major market sports radio stations in the world. Which is why WRHU produced games aired on ESPN Radio NYC this season and have aired many times over the years on WFAN NYC. ESPN and WFAN are two iconic radio brands in sports radio broadcasting and WRHU is honored to have aired student produced content on both of those platforms.
No other student operated college radio station in the world can match that feat..
