NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. – After months of planning, developing and testing, the Merrimack College Athletic Department is pleased to announce that it has joined forces with industry leader SIDEARM Sports and is excited to unveil a comprehensive redesign of
MerrimackAthletics.com on Tuesday.
The website was built with the user experience in mind, using the most modern and forward-looking design standards to offer compatibility across all devices. Along with a sleek design, improved navigation structure and a cleaner overall layout, the new online home of Merrimack College Athletics creates quick and easy access to essential information such as scores, schedules, videos, ticket information and more.
Developed to create a uniform feel across various platforms, the new website optimizes viewing and seamlessly standardizes the user experience for desktop, tablet and mobile devices, converting content to the screen size of the specific device being utilized.
As part of the move, live streaming on the
Merrimack Sports Network – which broadcasts nearly 100 home athletic webcasts on an annual basis – will now be integrated within the new website. Fans will now be able to watch their favorite teams and access live statistics and other pertinent game-related information all on the same page. Further details on the streaming setup will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
Additional upgrades include a new top schedule that shows all recent and upcoming scores and results with the click of the mouse, game day hubs, enhanced student-athlete bios, schedule pages, statistics, photo galleries and much more.
