SALINA, Kan. – Kansas Wesleyan Athletics has long been a leader regionally, both on the court and off. The championships, community service and academic support speak to that, as does the product provided by KWU Sports Information. That trend continues as KWU announces that it will change providers for its athletic web site, KWUCoyotes.com, at the end of June.
The new provider will be SIDEARM Sports.
Some of the things KWU fans can look forward to include increased social media integration, easier access to game scores and schedules, quick links to streaming and prominent mentions of ticketing, the Jerry Jones Athletic Hall of Fame and more.
"David Toelle and his team are among the best in the NAIA, and this new site will continue to highlight their strengths," said Brad Salois, director of university marketing and communications. "It will embrace the best features from some of SIDEARM Sports' top sites and be fully customized, thereby creating an environment that is best for the Coyote fan."
"Coyote fans are some of the most loyal in the region," said Toelle, associate athletic director for athletic communications. "They deserve a great product, and this website will be a tremendous vehicle to deliver that. SIDEARM is the best provider in the industry and has already shown a true dedication to giving us a product customized for the Coyote experience."
KWU is currently scheduled to join the SIDEARM family during the overnight hours Sunday, June 28. The existing site remains live at www.kwucoyotes.com.
