Broadcaster Derek Decker returns to call Purdue Fort Wayne women\u2019s basketball home games, offering listeners play-by-play action, interviews with players and coaches, and postgame wrap-ups.<\/p>\n<p>Decker said: \u201cLast year, we brought Mastodon women\u2019s basketball to life on local radio for the first time in more than a decade. I\u2019m honored to once again help tell the story of a team with a long history and a terrific fanbase in the Summit City.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The next broadcast of the season is on Monday, November 2, featuring Purdue Fort Wayne vs. Xavier. 95.7 WELT\u2019s live coverage begins at 6:45 p.m. with tipoff at 7 p.m. Game broadcasts will preempt regularly scheduled programming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMastodon basketball is a natural fit for community radio,\u201d said ACPL&#8217;s Access Fort Wayne Manager John O&#8217;Rourke. \u201cOur listeners care about what\u2019s happening in Fort Wayne, and we\u2019re proud to bring them every game from the home court.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>95.7 WELT, which stands for \u201cWe Encourage Local Talent,\u201d is a non-commercial, community-driven, low power radio station through which volunteer producers create shows around the music and topics they care about. The weekly lineup includes classic rock, classic country, smooth jazz, 1960s and 1970s pop, and more, along with talk programs, interviews, and live performances by local musicians.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;WELT is one of the ways we try to make sure everyone belongs at the library,&#8221; said O&#8217;Rourke. &#8220;And because WELT allows the patrons to produce broadcasts in their own voices, the station has a sound that  reflects Fort Wayne itself. And here in Fort Wayne, we love our &#8216;Dons, so I&#8217;m really pleased we can offer this access to the community!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The station&#8217;s programming is produced at the Main Library and is the only radio station in the United States owned by a public library. The station celebrated its 10th anniversary earlier this year and continues to engage new producers every month. Anyone in the community can apply to go on the air.<\/p>\n<p>PFW fans can tune in to 95.7 FM WELT or stream live at <a href=\"https:\/\/acpl.info\/welt\" target=\"_blank\">acpl.info\/welt<\/a>.
