EVANSTON, Ill. -- Get the inside scoop on Northwestern basketball with Wildcat Fastbreak, a new weekly look into the Wildcat men's and women's programs that debuts tonight (Jan. 4) at 11 p.m. on Comcast SportsNet Chicago.

With a 10 episode run that coincides with Big Ten conference play, Wildcat Fastbreak promises to give fans unprecedented behind-the-scenes access to their favorite teams and Northwestern student-athletes.

The show will debut Tuesday nights on Comcast SportsNet Chicago, then air Wednesday afternoons on the Big Ten Network and CSN Chicago. Wildcat Fastbreak is hosted by WGN Radio Sports Director Dave Eanet. The show is produced as a partnership between Northwestern Athletics and the Medill School.

Men's basketball head coach Bill Carmody and women's basketball head coach Joe McKeown will each join Eanet in studio for the debut episode to review their teams' play in the non-conference season as well as the Big Ten openers against Purdue. The show will also follow the men's team on its recent trip to New York City for an in-depth look at the Madison Square Garden Holiday Festival.

An upcoming air schedule for Wildcat Fastbreak is listed below. Please note that times are subject to change due to live programming. When possible, schedule changes will be posted on NUsports.com and the Northwestern Athletics Facebook and Twitter pages.
