NO SHOW: Equipment break forces Tech to cancel webstreams of weekend soccer matches

NO SHOW: Equipment break forces Tech to cancel webstreams of weekend soccer matches


COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- A key piece of Tennessee Tech Athletics video equipment that is required to provide content for webstream productions has broken and been shipped off for repair. The loss of that equipment means Tennessee Tech will not be able to offer live webstreams of this weekend's two home soccer matches against Georgia State on Friday and Western Carolina on Sunday.

The matches were scheduled to be included in the list of events being streamed on the OVCDN by the Golden Eagle Sports Network. Once the equipment is repaired, Tech is slated to webstream three future soccer home matches against Belmont (Sept. 17), SIUE (Oct. 26) and Jacksonville State (Oct. 31).

"We regret that we will not be able to steam these two matches. We know that many of our fans, alumni and player's families will be disappointed," said Rob Schabert, TTU Assistant Athletic Director for Sports Information and Broadcasting. "We have spent the past week trying to locate a piece of replacement equipment, but have not been able to do so."

Fans who cannot attend the matches will still be able to follow the action with LIVE STATS on TTUsports.com at the links below.

The Golden Eagle Sports Network will produce a post-game video featuring match highlights and interviews.

"We are extremely proud of the productions that the Golden Eagle Sports Network provides to the OVC Digital Network, and we have seen the numbers of those webstreams. We have an awful lot of people watching our events," Schabert said. "Our staff will do all we can to get the problem fixed, and to continue to provide the highest quality coverage of all Tennessee Tech teams as possible."

The Georgia State match is Friday at 4 p.m., and the Western Carolina contest is Sunday at 1 p.m. Admission to all home regular season matches is free.
