WSCR-AM 670 will be the local radio home for this year's NCAA basketball tournament. Program director Mitch Rosen said the station will have wall-to-wall games beginning with the first round action in March.

"It's big for us," Rosen said. "The NCAA tournament is appointment listening. Everyone has a pool and they all want to know what's going on."

WSCR had to adjust its schedule with the Sox to be able to air its slate of exhibition games. The station will air five complete Sox games and another four "interactive" games in which Sox announcers Ed Farmer and Darrin Jackson will conduct interviews and field calls during the game.
