FORT COLLINS Colo. – Rams fans are reminded to tune into another episode of the Emmy-nominated series "Reaching the Peak,” airing Thursdays at 7:30 p.m. MT on The Mtn. – The MountainWest Sports Network.
"Reaching the Peak: Colorado State Season Pass” is a follow-up to the six-episode series, last year, which chronicled the Rams’ basketball program through the first three months of the 2008-09 season.
"Season Pass” offers viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the CSU men’s basketball program, giving fans an in-depth glimpse into what it means to be a member of the team.
The series features elements like Coach ‘em Up, Miles a Minute, Player Profiles, and question-and-answer Shot Clock segments. “Season Pass” will also give viewers an off-the-court look at Head Coach Tim Miles, his staff and the student-athletes.
Additional content, including outtakes, can be found online at www.themtn.tv/pages/reach_the_peak.
Fans in the Fort Collins area can tune into The Mtn. on Comcast Channel 411, while DirecTV subscribers can tune into Channel 616. Check local listings to find The Mtn. in a specific area, or visit www.themtn.tv for more information.
Rams Sports Magazine Show
Rams fans are also reminded to catch another segment of the Rams Sports Magazine (RSM) show, on digital channel Northern Colorado 5, airing every Thursday at 6:30 p.m.
RSM covers all aspects of CSU athletics, from football to swimming. RSM also will highlight student-athletes and feature one-on-one interviews with CSU coaches, including Steve Fairchild (football), Tom Hilbert (volleyball), Tim Miles (men's basketball) and Kristen Holt (women's basketball).
Broadcasting every Thursday night throughout the academic year, the show also will include insight from Paul Kowalczyk and Voice of the Rams Jerry Schemmel, and tell countless stories inside CSU's 16 varsity programs and its 400 student-athletes.
The nearly 100,000 Comcast customers in Northern Colorado can catch the show on NoCo5 (Channel 8 in Fort Collins and Loveland; Channel 14 in Greeley). Nearly 6,000 US Cable subscribers in smaller cities such as Wellington, LaPorte, Severance and Eaton, can also view the show.
Those fans without Comcast or US Cable can access RSM on www.NoCo5.com (after its weekly premiere on NoCo5). In addition, The Mtn. - the official television network of the Mountain West Conference - will re-air the show on Thursdays at 10 p.m. MT, Fridays at 5 p.m. MT and other additional airtimes as available on a weekly basis. The Mtn. is available nationally on DirecTV, as well as in Colorado on Comcast and other providers. For more information, contact the Colorado State athletic media relations office.
