A daily look at the Bloomsburg University Athletic teams.

The End of June Already

Written by Bloomsburg Sports Info on 8:39 AM

Here is the Huskies Update for Monday, June 29.

It is hard to believe that the end of June is already here. We are now less than two months from the first events of 2009-10. The women's soccer team will start the action on Aug. 27th at 1 p.m. against CW Post. Then at 6 p.m. the football team will take on Ashland. While it will still be light at 6 p.m., it is technically the first night game at the renovated Redman Stadium. I hope you will be making plans to attend either one of those events.

We've a few more folks sign up for our Twitter updates. If you haven't done so, be sure to get a twitter account at twitter.com and then become a follower of BU Sports Info. We'll be letting all our twitter fans know about all the BU sports news even before some of it is posted on the web.

We've also added a BU Sports Info channel to You Tube. Check it out by going here.

Enjoy the rest of June and then the July 4 holiday celebration!

Summer is Here-Social Media Is Here

Written by Bloomsburg Sports Info on 5:25 AM

Well summer is now officially here and the weather in this part of PA is finally starting to warm-up and dry out.

TWITTER
I hope you have all heard of Twitter by now. If not, then let me tell you it is a great way to get short text messages (or web only updates) on many topics. Here at BU Sports Information we have been "tweeting" for a few months now. Go to Twitter.com and get your free account, then sign up to "follow" BUSportsinfo. When the fall sports get underway we'll be providing daily updates of what is happening with Bu sports. Many times we'll be tweeting right from the event giving you the quickest update on what is happening.

YOU TUBE
In the coming year we'll be providing some video clips of what is happening at Bloomsburg with our sports teams. We experimented briefly in the spring, but now that we have some new equipment we'll be doing more You Tube videos. Check out our latest video...this one dealing with the renovation project at Nelson Field House by going here. Of course feedback is always welcome.

PHOTO STORE
More photos will be coming in the next week or so to the BU Photo Store. Check it out by going here.
