The UNO men's basketball team is set to play before a nationwide television audience this year as the Summit League on Thursday announced its annual TV package in partnership with Midco Sports Network and Fox College Sports. The agreement provides the league at least 20 men's and women's basketball games to a national cable television audience during the 2012-13 season.

The Mavericks make their television appearance on March 2, hosting North Dakota State at the Ralston Sports and Event Center on Senior Day.

Midco Sports Network will produce and air eight Summit League matchups during the regular season and all men's and women's quarterfinal and semifinal games from the Summit League Championships in March. Each of those 20 games will be simulcast to a national audience by Fox College Sports. As many as five additional games will be announced in the coming weeks, with Midco Sports Network holding an option to include up to three exclusive regional telecasts and FCS to select two more games for national availability.
