announced the debut of live Internet webcasts for several home
athletic contests on a trial basis. The first scheduled broadcast,
a men's volleyball game against Cazenovia on Tuesday, Feb. 11,

“Wells College student-athletes, along with their friends
and families, have strongly embraced our online presence,”
said Griffin Spencer, Assistant Athletics Director
for Sports Information and Game Day Operations. “Thanks to
our great fans, Wells College Athletics boasts one of the strongest
fan followings in the North Eastern Athletic Conference. With an
