Inside Lacrosse TV debuts on ESPN 2 Feb. 22 at 4 p.m. EST
ESPN2 will commence its college lacrosse coverage Thursday at 4:00 p.m. EST with Inside Lacrosse TV.
Hosted by ESPNU’s Mike Hall and Quint Kessenich, the one-hour special will preview the upcoming college season, while also taking a look at the biggest stories and personalities in the game. The Inside Lacrosse staff worked directly with the ESPN
production team to put this special together.
"Over the past ten years, we've made books, calendars, magazines, yearbooks, web offerings, and then there's our upcoming event," said IL Publisher Robert Carpenter. "This show has been the most fun, most collaborative and most advanced product we've ever done. It really showcases what makes this sport so much fun to play."
The show will be re-aired on ESPNU several times starting Feb. 23 at 1:30 p.m. EST.
