𝗡𝗘𝗪: @BlazersCMU 🤝 FanWord
"We're extremely excited to join this partnership with FanWord. I've seen first-hand the power FanWord has to elevate both the player and fan experience during my time at UBC Okanagan, and I know it will level-up our communications strategy here at CMU too," said Director of Athletics Russell Willms.
The Blazers are members of the @CCAAsportACSC. 🔥

Hardest question: "Curling became a fan favorite to watch at the Olympics after a famous verbal spat between Team Canada and Sweden, but this university is taking all of the drama out of American collegiate curling, having won the national championship the last three years. Who is it?"
🔢 𝗕𝗬 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗡𝗨𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥𝗦: 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗩𝗜𝗔 𝗡𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧
We crunched the data from last week's College Sports Trivia Night at #CSCUnite26.
24 teams. 40 questions. Over 100 of you in the room. And one question that stumped nearly everyone — only one team got it right (question in the replies — type your answer if you know it).
Thanks to everyone who came out, brought the energy, and reminded us that people in college athletics show up for each other the same way they show up for their programs. 🏆
The full breakdown is in the graphic.

Our team grabbed a recording of session, dropped it into FanWord Assist and produced a thorough summary of the event in minutes.
At the bottom of the post, you'll also see a behind-the-scenes look at what it took to bring that summary to life and how that same process works for SIDs.

That’s a wrap on #CSCUnite26. 🤯
Unbelievable four days in Vegas at the @NACDA & @CollSportsComm Convention.
• A panel on AI adoption
• Two days on the tradeshow floor
• A product demo
• Two workshops
• Dozens of meetings
• And one very competitive trivia night
First and foremost, to everyone who stopped by the booth, sat in on the demo, found time to meet, asked questions in the workshop, or stayed late for trivia — thank you. 🙏
You're the reason we build what we build.
The curiosity around AI in college sports is at an all-time high.
And increasingly, so is the momentum.
---
On Sunday, I had the chance to sit on a panel with four leaders who are early adopters of AI in college sports.
• @TravisRae — Assoc. AD, @TulsaHurricane
•Kyle Ferguson — AD, @fpusunbirds
• @hannnahfoley — Asst. Dir.,@MasonAthletics
• @cphelman — Asst. AD, @pbasailfish
The conversation was about AI adoption in athletic communications and ultimately… where the skepticism comes from, what changes minds, how SIDs are finding value without sacrificing the storytelling that they love, and much more.
👉 If you missed the session, we are sharing some key takeaways early next week.
Thanks to #CSC for the platform and to our panelists for an honest conversation.
Special shoutout to the entire CSC crew for putting an amazing event together. Jason Yaman, @wroleson, @beau_white , and @becky_griesmer.

“At VMI, everything is close. You can walk down the hall and find someone who’s ready to help you without hesitation. That environment changes you. It forces you to show up the right way, because there’s no hiding. And for me, that’s been the biggest part of growing into who I am now—not just as a player, but as someone people rely on.”
