CINCINNATI – The first women’s basketball game of the season for Mount St. Joseph University will air on Fox Sports Ohio.
The game has been moved ahead of schedule to accommodate the wishes of Lawrenceburg High School graduate Lauren Hill, 19, who is suffering from a terminal brain cancer.
Her dream is to play in a college basketball game. The touching story has gained national attention and led to Xavier University offering their 10,000 seat Cintas Center for the game. Tickets went on sale last week and sold out within a half hour.
Mount St. Joe will face Hiram College at 2 p.m. Sunday.
Fox Sports Ohio will broadcast the game live and ETC customers can locate the network on channel 22. It is also channel 427 on Dish Network and channel 661 for DirecTV viewers.
Hill has launched the #layupforlauren challenge which raises money for brain cancer research.
