After reviewing the results of a summer poll, the St. John Fisher College Athletics Department now boasts several new features to its Athletics website.
Headlining the new features is an upgrade to the existing webcasting service. Several games were broadcast over the internet last year through Empire8.tv, but the $2 charge has been removed, and plans are in place to broadcast all games from Growney Stadium, and Manning & Napier Varsity Gym live, and free of charge over the internet. The College has also purchased software that will allow for the incorporation of graphics into the webcasts.
Users also have the option to subscribe to free text message updates through the site, and continue to have the option to subscribe to an e-newsletter. When signing up for text updates, users can select which sport or combination of sports they want to subscribe to, eliminating unwanted updates. Standard messaging rates apply. SIGN UP FOR:

The updated site also features enhanced rosters that link to game stories, like this one on women’s soccer player
Ashley Martin (hover over the name), and enhanced schedules that contain the links for live stats, radio and television coverage, and even a weather forecast for the selected game. To view the schedule improvements, select a sport, click ‘Schedule’ in the right-hand sidebar, and click ‘Details’ for each individual game.
