EDISON, N.J. (Dec. 1, 2020) – The Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) has announced a change in the 2020-21 men’s basketball conference and ESPNU schedules.

Games aired on an ESPN network will also be available through the ESPN App, accessible on computers, smartphones, tablets and connected devices to fans who receive their video subscription from an affiliated provider.
