Give it up for the Girls

Preparations are underway here at Seneca College's Newnham Campus for the 32nd Annual Seneca Sting Women’s Basketball Classic Tournament happening this weekend (Fri. Jan. 7 to Sat. Jan. 8).

We're pretty pumped because we've got eight great teams participating from across the country.

Those teams are: The Humber College Hawks (Toronto), Sheridan College Bruins (Oakville, Ont.), Fanshawe College Falcons (London, Ont.), Vanier College Cheetahs (Montreal), Dawson College Blues (Montreal), Champlain Regional College Lions (Quebec City), Grande Prairie Regional College Wolves (Grande Prairie, AB) and, us, the Seneca Sting (Toronto).

Below is the tournament draw:

What I'm personally most excited about, as a bit of a tech nerd, is the makeshift webcast we're mounting here, live from the gymnasium.  No play-by-play, no on-court microphones, just a digital camera, a tripod and a laptop.

If you're a Canadian hoops fan, you'll also be getting great coverage via social media:

I just distributed a media release about the tournament and a few local publications have already expressed interest in covering us.

It should be sweet!

See you at the gymnasium!

Best,
