NORTH ATLANTIC CONFERENCE LAUNCHES NEW WEB SITE THROUGH PRESTOSPORTS, NAC SITE INTEGRATES D3SCOREBOARD SYSTEM, ONLINE AWARDS AND LATEST WEB SOLUTIONS
ROCKVILLE, Md. - The North Atlantic Conference, an NCAA Division III athletic conference comprised of 11 institutions across New England, has launched an innovative web site through the PrestoSports network at www.nacathletics.com. The new NAC site offers a unique design which features league news, scores, standings and players of the week while increasing the functionality for the conference office.
"The North Atlantic Conference is pleased to begin its
partnership with PrestoSports as
the host of the conference website. NACATHLETICS.COM plays
a central role in providing the most up to date information to the
public and our conference members," NAC Commissioner Julie
Muller said.
"The PrestoSports staff has been extremely
professional in this transition process and has provided us with a
product that will meet the significant needs of our
conference. The new site is not only appealing to the eye but
the user friendly navigation will allow our visitors to easily find
the information they need, quickly and efficiently. I am looking
forward to making the best possible use of the expanded features we
now have available to us."
The NAC will take advantage of the unique PrestoSports awards system, networking with d3scoreboard and the innovative solutions which have provided assistance for more than 20 of the nation's top conferences. With the d3scoreboard interface, scores and standings will immediately update the league site and some of the nation's top NCAA Division III media sites. Additionally, league administrators will manage all-conference and player-of the-week awards through its web site.
