The Ohio Valley Conference announced Friday it will make courtside replay available during all games played in conference venues starting in January.

Courtside monitors are usually only available to officiating crews during televised games. The NCAA regulates how replays may be used during games.

"OVC games are too competitive, and we have too much invested to not utilize every means available to ensure our officials have every tool necessary," Ohio Valley Commissioner Jon A. Steinbrecher said. "We owe this to our student-athletes, coaches, and fans."
