KPMX (105.7 FM) and sister station KSIR (1010 AM) will have full play-by-play coverage of the NJC men's and women's basketball teams in the upcoming Region IX Tournaments.

The women's tournament is at Casper College in Casper, Wyoming. The NJC women have a first round bye into the quarter finals and will play their first game on Monday, March 5 at 5:00 pm. The semifinal game would be played Tuesday, March 6 at 7:00pm and the final is scheduled for 6:00pm on Wednesday, March 7. All of the women's play-by-play can be heard on 105.7 KPMX and on www.kpmx.com.

The men's team begins action in Scottsbluff, Nebraska on Saturday, March 3 at 6:00pm with a first round game against McCook. The game can be heard on 105.7 KPMX and on www.kpmx.com. The next three men's games are scheduled to start one hour after the NJC women tip off. Because the games may overlap, starting with the quarterfinal round, the men's games will also be aired on 1010 KSIR in their entirety. KPMX will join the play-by-play of the men's games as soon as the women's game is completed. The men's games can also be heard in their entirety on www.kpmx.com.
