Each year, more than 100 UIC sporting events, including 75+ home competitions that will stream on ESPN+ (among the most of any school in the Missouri Valley Conference). UIC athletics programs broadcasted on ESPN+ include men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s soccer, volleyball, baseball and softball.

• The majority of UIC basketball games will stream on ESPN+.
• Select UIC broadcasts may air on ESPN3 instead of ESPN+. Check each team’s schedule regularly to see which network a game is being broadcasted.
• Beginning in 2024-25, select UIC men's and women's basketball regular-season games and opening-round/quarterfinal State Farm MVC Men’s Basketball Tournament contests also aired on Gray Media TV stations, as part of the MVC's new multi-year agreement with the media company. 
  • The linear over-the-air station package is distributed in 22 Gray Media markets in the states of Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, Iowa and Tennessee and via third-party broadcast partners in markets outside of the Gray footprint. As part of the Conference’s multi-year contract with ESPN, the entire package is simulcast live nationally on ESPN+ and available through the ESPN app without digital blackouts.
