SPRINGFIELD, Ohio - Wittenberg University athletic teams will appear on Time Warner Cable in the Dayton area several times in the next few months, beginning with tomorrow's men's soccer game at 4 p.m. between the Tigers and Cedarville University at Bill Edwards Field. Time Warner will cover as many as nine other Wittenberg sporting events during the 2002-03 school year, including a football game at 1 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 7 against Albion College.

The Wittenberg-Cedarville soccer game will be cablecast at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 4 and 8 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 7. The football game will be cablecast at 10 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 7 following the soccer game, as well as at 10 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 11. The programs can be found on Time Warner Cable systems on channel 25 or 69 in Dayton, channel 30 in the Dayton suburbs, and channel 59 in communities further north.
