In about 8 weeks the Bearkats will have a new and improved website. This is going to be great for the Athletic Department and fans.

Sam Houston athletics, XOS network
agree to website, ticketing partnership


HUNTSVILLE, TX - Sam Houston State and XOS Network have agreed to a partnership which will create a new comprehensive website and total ticketing system for the Bearkat athletic department.

The interactive website will include a broadband video channel to show highlights of games, coach's shows, news conferences and, eventually, live video streaming of athletic events.

Other website features eventually will include an online store, online auctions, a mobile store as well as other features that will enhance the site for fans visiting the webpage.

“This is an exciting opportunity for us to partner with XOS for our new interactive athletic website and total ticketing system,” Director of Athletics Bobby Williams said. “We look forward to creating a more fan friendly website that will allow our fans more comprehensive coverage of Bearkat athletics “.

Will there be a cost for this service? NDSU currently uses XOS also.

That live streaming feature will come in handy when I'm living on the other side of the planet. :-D
