Wild Announce Broadcast Details For 2023-24 Season
WENATCHEE, Wash. – The Wenatchee Wild are excited to announce that fans can once again follow the team all season long on local radio and worldwide streaming as the team gets set to begin its first year in the Western Hockey League (WHL) in 2023-24.
All 68 Wenatchee Wild regular-season and playoff games will air on Townsquare Media radio stations in the Wenatchee Valley, with the bulk of this year’s schedule set to air on Newsradio 560 KPQ, and occasional broadcasts shifting to 1340 The Hawk. Wenatchee’s home preseason game on September 9 against the Tri-City Americans, the team’s first appearance at Town Toyota Center as a WHL club, will also be carried on KPQ. In addition to the traditional “over-the-air” broadcast, a free internet stream is available through the stations’ websites. Austin Draude will provide play-by-play coverage for all Wild broadcasts this year, as he enters his second season with the organization and 11th season in junior hockey.
“We are honored to continue our broadcast partnership with the Wenatchee Wild,” said Townsquare Media market president Laura Lawrence. “My team is so proud of each and every member of the Wild organization and we wish them continued success as they enter their inaugural season in the WHL. GO WILD!”
