Albany, N.Y. - Made possible by a continued and long-standing partnership with SEFCU, UAlbany has officially launched the all-new UAlbany Sports official mobile app.
 
The app, powered by SIDEARM Sports, features real-time news alerts, schedules, exclusive multimedia content, gameday details and more. The new UAlbany Sports app is free and compatible with both iOS and Android devices.
 
"This is a very exciting day for Great Dane nation," said UAlbany Director of Athletics Mark Benson, "Quick and easy access to content is the name of the game in today's digital media landscape, and the new UAlbany Sports app will prove to be an absolute game-changer for all our fans, student-athletes and staff, especially those who favor a high-quality digital experience. We want to extend a very special thank you to Michael Castellana and his team at SEFCU, as we wouldn't have been able to launch the new app without their continued support and investment in Great Dane Athletics.  Additionally, I'd like to thank Griffith Hunter, our Assistant AD for Marketing. He was our driving force behind this initiative to be implemented as way to significantly enhance the game day experience for our fans."
 
Through the app, UAlbany fans will enjoy a personalized mobile experience with the ability to manage tickets, shop for official Great Danes merchandise and receive breaking news and score notifications for the teams they follow.
 
The app is designed with a user-friendly interface that integrates directly with UAlbanySports.com to bring the latest Great Danes digital content right to your fingertips. Additionally, it includes links to video and audio streams of live games, in-game stats, and team social media feeds.
 
"From doing your banking to following your favorite college sports teams, having a championship-caliber mobile app enriches the experience for all users. That is why SEFCU is honored to be the presenting sponsor of UAlbany's fantastic new mobile app," said SEFCU President and CEO Michael Castellana. "This app will give everyone from casual followers to die-hard Great Danes fans faster, more convenient access to schedules, stats, scores, and stories about their favorite teams and players.
