eScores -- get Auggie scores sent to your cell phone/e-mail

More fun with technology ...

We're giving Auggie fans a new way to keep updated on their favorite sports. Augsburg is partnering with our live webcast provider, Stretch Internet, to provide fans with "eScores", for fans to receive scores and info via cell phone or e-mail.

eScores is a free one-of-a-kind instant messaging service that allows you to receive scores, news and other information from Augsburg athletics. You choose what categories or sports you're interested in, what type of messages you want to receive (for example, scores or headlines) and how you want to receive the information ... we take it from there.

You can either receive the eScores messages via your cell phone (with text messaging enabled) or by e-mail. Once an Augsburg event is complete (and our game story is posted online), we'll send out an eScore message, which you'll receive on your cell phone or e-mail. We'll also occasionally send out news and alerts via this service.

If you'd like more info or would like to sign up, follow this link: http://escores.stretchinternet.com/login.php?sch=augsburg. Click on the SIGN UP NOW link to sign up. More details are on the Frequently Asked Questions link on that page.
