NRG Media Omaha and Creighton University have announced a three-year extension to keep NRG stations the flagship home of Bluejays athletics.
1620 The Zone and 101.9 The Keg will have exclusive rights to Creighton men’s basketball. John Bishop will remain the play-by-play voice.
“NRG has been a tremendous partner with Creighton Athletics and we are thrilled to continue this deal,” said Athletic Director Marcus Blossom. “We truly value the long-term relationship we have had with NRG and look forward to the expansion of coverage with additional sports on NRG’s radio stations. Also, having all of our men’s basketball games now available on 101.9 FM expands the radio footprint in Omaha for our fans.”
Creighton baseball home games, women’s basketball, volleyball, and women’s soccer will air on either 1180 The Zone or News Talk 1290 KOIl. Men’s soccer will air on La Nueva 1020 AM/99.5 FM.
“We are extremely excited to continue our partnership with Creighton University and the Athletic Department. Creighton is an amazing university with a great athletic program, and we are thrilled to be associated with the University. We truly look forward to growing our partnership in the coming years,” Market Manager of NRG Radio Omaha Mark Shecterle said.
