Brooklyn, New York – St. Francis (NY) has announced a partnership with Stretch Internet for all Terriers’ audio streaming on SFCathletics.com during the 2007-2008 campaign.

 

In addition to broadcasting most men’s and women’s basketball games live, the network will air a slew of other Terriers’ contests and special events throughout the year. Further, numerous podcasts featuring interviews with coaches and student-athletes will air on the new Terrier Sports Network (TSN). All broadcasts will be free of charge for Terriers’ fans.

 

“I’m delighted that we will be working with Stretch Internet this season for all of our internet broadcasts,” said St. Francis (NY) Director of Athletics Irma Garcia. “We’re really looking forward to giving all of our student-athletes the exposure that they deserve. We certainly feel that we are now on the cutting edge in terms of web broadcasting.”

 

This will be the sixth season that Terriers’ athletics can be heard online, but the inaugural season through Stretch.  Fans will need QuickTime audio in order to hear the transmission, which can be downloaded from Stretch’s website, www.stretchinternet.com.

 

St. Francis College play-by-play announcer Nicholas Guerriero begins his fourth season as the official voice of the Terriers and will be joined in the booth by color analyst Carl Coulanges. The duo of Guerriero and Coulanges are in their second season together, and will conduct player/coaches interviews in addition to their game day work.

 

All archived shows can be heard through Itunes, and fans will have the ability to purchase old broadcasts through Stretch Internet's website. Also, fans interested in receiving instant Terriers’ scores can receive free text messages or emails.
