Mammoth reach deal with radio stations

The Colorado Mammoth has reached an agreement with two Denver radio stations to broadcast the National Lacrosse League club's 16 regular-season games.

Seven of the games will be broadcast on KKFN-AM (950) and nine on sister station KEPN-AM (1600).

The season opener against the Calgary Roughnecks at the Pepsi Center will be broadcast on KKFN at 7 p.m. Saturday.

Matt Williamson, who has served as a broadcaster for Syracuse and Wayne State athletics, will handle the play-by-play.

"Having all games - home and away - available on the radio is an important part of the Mammoth's relationship with its fans," Mammoth general manager Steve Govett said.
