Waterloo Black Hawks News Release


Waterloo, Iowa-Home or away, Waterloo Black Hawks fans can follow the team during the entire 2013/14 season with radio broadcasts on 1650-AM, "The Fan," or its sister stations, the Black Hawks announced Tuesday.

"'The Fan' has been a great partner as Black Hawks hockey has grown," said Vice President of Business Operations Mike Falk. "Our fans know that they can always find the latest on the team when they tune in, and that is only possible with the behind-the-scenes efforts of the talented producers and technicians at the station."

Each game broadcast will begin with a 20-minute pregame show, and conclude with postgame coverage which runs down game details and league results.

For more than a decade, KCNZ has been the flagship station for hockey in the Cedar Valley. The 1650 signal reaches a 20 county area of northeast Iowa.

"The Hawks have one the largest and most loyal fan bases in the Cedar Valley. Coach O'Handley has his team in the hunt for a title every season. They are the perfect complement to our top-rated sports talk line-up of Dan Patrick and Jim Rome."
