The BYU softball team will play an unprecedented 15 nationally televised regular season games on BYUtv during the upcoming 2012 regular season. In addition, 10 games will be broadcast on BYU Radio.

The 15-game national television schedule is unique in college softball, giving Cougar fans around the country a chance to watch BYU go for its fourth-straight conference title and eighth NCAA tournament berth in a row.

The Cougars, which will participate as members of the Western Athletic Conference this season, are coming off a 40-18 record last season that included a third-straight Mountain West Conference championship and a trip to the NCAA Seattle Regional. Head coach Gordon Eakin is heading into his 10th season as head coach with a 371-160 (.699) career record.

The BYUtv broadcasts include all three games of WAC series against New Mexico State and San Jose State along with both games of Saturday doubleheaders against conference foes Hawai'i and Utah State and nonconference opponent UMKC.
