The Big Ten Conference’s television partners have released the broadcast schedule for the upcoming baseball and softball seasons. Four games from the UCLA Bruins women’s softball team’s 24 conference matchups will be televised on either Big Ten Network (BTN) or FS1.
The final two games of UCLA’s series at Rutgers, scheduled for Sunday, March 22 at 2 p.m. PT and Monday, March 23 at 3 p.m. PT, will air on BTN. The following game, which is a series opener at Nebraska on Friday, March 27 at 6 p.m. PT, is set to be the only conference softball contest this season broadcast by FS1. Additionally, UCLA’s series opener against Washington on Friday, April 24 at 7 p.m. PT will also be shown on BTN.
BTN has reserved nine wild card selections for additional broadcasts later in the season, with five of those spots designated for the regular season’s final weekend from May 1-3. Announcements regarding these selections are expected closer to that date. During that weekend, UCLA will host Oregon at Easton Stadium.
Coverage of the entire Big Ten Softball Tournament—which takes place May 6-9 on Maryland’s campus—will also be provided by BTN.
For fans interested in watching more games beyond those televised nationally, all non-televised UCLA home contests and away Big Ten Conference matchups can be streamed via Big Ten Plus (B1G+). The streaming service offers annual passes for $89.99 and monthly passes for $12.99; approximately thirty UCLA home and road games are available exclusively through B1G+.
