No problem. Now you can watch many Wildcat contests live \u2014 in the comfort of wherever you happen to be, thanks to the Athletics Department and the College of Technology, who have combined to web stream games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The concept was born three years ago when Adjunct Professor Tim Shaffer and Coordinator of Sports Information Dan Lauletta produced the first three-camera soccer games for the 2014 Wilmington Homecoming Weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast-forward to this past basketball season, when College of Technology Assistant Professor Tim Day introduced a few producing upgrades, resulting in a high definition operation to stream live basketball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe saw an opportunity that could really benefit our College of Technology students,\u201d Day says. \u201cThe on-location broadcasts give them hands-on experience in what it\u2019s like working a live event. It helps our students gain valuable out-of-classroom experience while also helping to promote Wilmington athletics.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The men\u2019s basketball home playoff game, the first in program history, featured 250 online plays with a peak audience of 96 at one time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the spring, Day\u2019s team filmed the softball team from the upgraded press box at Asbury Field. They produced a multi-camera broadcast during multiple games this past season, reaching a peak audience of 129 during the doubleheader with Goldey-Beacom College on April 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Softball Head Coach Mike Shehorn has discovered that the live stream helps recruiting. \u201cWe have had a number of recruits email us following a game saying they were excited to be able to watch us play,\u201d he says. \u201cParents from all over the country can send their daughters to Wilmington knowing they are going to be able to catch<br>the home games.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A multi-camera setup was planned this past season for the baseball team and Wilson Field, and plans are underway to extend the web streaming program to fall sports.
