NEW ORLEANS - The Tulane University athletic department, in conjunction with Student Advantage's FANSonly Network, today unveiled a complete redesign of the school's official athletic site, TulaneGreenWave.com. The revamped site combines official athletic department news and information with the latest in digital technology and design.
"As the Internet constantly evolves, it is imperative to stay current and look for new ideas to keep fans expecting new information and features, and to continue to pursue incremental revenue through the Internet. A redesign offers an opportunity to do all of these things," said Tulane Associate Athletic Director Vince Granito.
Along with the new look, TulaneGreenWave.com offers expanded efforts to provide alumni, fans and media with complete information on all Green Wave sports. The site features extensive audio and video clips from the Conference USA teleconference and video highlights as well as archived tapings of the Chris Scelfo television and radio program. TulaneGreenWave.com also features online shopping in the Green Wave Sports Shop, a free TulaneGreenWave.com email service and the Tulane online auction, which allows fans to bid on Green Wave memorabilia. Throughout the year there will also be opportunities to interact online with Tulane players and coaches, such as our "Ask Coach Scelfo" feature.
"We are excited that Tulane has chosen to enhance its official athletic site," said Jeff Cravens, Vice President and General Manager of FANSonly. "TulaneGreenWave.com is the complete destination for Tulane fans to follow their favorite Green Wave teams. The power of the Internet has become a vital part of an athletic department's marketing, media and promotional efforts, and it is a credit to Tulane that they have continued to make their site better."
TulaneGreenWave.com launched on Nov. 16, 1998 and was the first Conference USA school to join the FANSonly Network. Entering its third year as part of the Network, TulaneGreenWave.com has increased its audience 97 percent over the past two years and currently averages 90,000 page views per month.
