WELCOME TO THE NEW HVWAC HOME ON THE WEB!
Conference's independent website to offer news, features, standings, and 'everything HVWAC'
(New York, NY - 10/3/07) - The Hudson Valley Women's Athletic Conference (HVMAC) has a new home on the world wide
web! Sports Information Director Michael Spinner launched HVWAC.net today with the hopes that it will take the
marketing and promotion of the conference to a new level among Division III Athletics Conferences. For the last year, the
HVMAC's official website was hosted by the College of Mount Saint Vincent.
"We're all very grateful to the Athletics and Public Relations staffs at Mount Saint Vincent for allowing our conference to
have its first ever home for a website, and the experience of having a site for the first time last year proved the
importance of a great website," said Spinner. "I think launching our own site will allow us to market and promote our
conference in new and exciting ways, and give us a tremendous presence among Division III Athletics Conferences. If you
look at the Empire-8, SUNY AC, and other Division III Conferences who utilize an in-house website, our design is of a
similar quality, and I think that is an amazing thing. I hope when all is said and done we'll be able to say we have the
best in-house conference website among Division III conferences across the country."
The new website features a simple design, allowing viewers easy navigation to gather information on each HVWAC sport,
as well navigation at the top of the page featuring every HVWAC member institution's athletics logo, complete with
hyperlink to the school's athletics page. Eventually, Spinner said, the website will offer logo and roster downloads, and an
archive that will date back as far as conference records have been kept.
"It's going to be a very user friendly website once it's all finished." Spinner said. "Each school has a link, each sport has a
section, and we're going to offer a history of the conference, along with downloads so both conference and
non-conference schools can have an easier time doing their sports information work. It's a process building a website,
right now all of the basic information is published. But by next year, I hope this site has everything one would want in a
conference website."
