ROCKVILLE, Md. - Wheelock College, an NCAA Division III member of the New England Collegiate Conference located in Boston, Mass., has partnered with PrestoSports to launch a new athletics web site. The new home for the Wildcats recently launched at www.wheelockwildcats.com.

"We're excited to work with Wheelock to enhance its athletics web site," says PrestoSports Chief Operating Officer Patrick B. Summers. "The new site will give Wheelock athletics an opportunity to showcase its efforts on and off the field of play."

Wheelock's new site launched with a new design and a number of innovative features which put athletics administrators in complete control of the look of and content within the web site. Some of the distinctive features implemented on the Wheelock site include an Athlete of the Week, Ask the A.D., rotating stories and navigation to match the look and feel of the Wheelock College site.
