Fort Wayne, IN – The IPFW men’s basketball team will have an All-Star lineup announcing their games to fans in Fort Wayne this season.

On the radio side, Sports Directors Dean Pantazi (WPTA-21, ABC) and Kent Hormann (WISE-TV, NBC) will handle the radio broadcasts on AM 1250-WGL.

Fort Wayne basketball fans have a real treat in store for this coming season.”
