NORFOLK, Va. – With the season right around the corner, the Norfolk State athletics department announced today that it is currently offering streaming packages for the 2018-19 NSU basketball season.
All home NSU women's basketball games and all but four home men's basketball games will be available through the Spartan Showcase Video Streaming link,
www.nsuspartans.com/watch, for the ninth year in a row. It will also mark the third year using the new Daktronics video board system, giving fans access to different camera angles and replays throughout the game.
Season passes for the men go for $40 each, generating a savings of $10 off the game-by-game cost. This pass allows fans to gain access to 10 home games this year.
The men's package will not include this Friday's NSU-VSU exhibition game slated for a 7 p.m. start. Nor will it include conference games against Bethune-Cookman, North Carolina Central, or North Carolina A&T, as they will be broadcast by another service, to be announced at a later date.
Season passes for the women go for $55 each, generating a savings of $15 off the game-by-game cost. This allows fans to gain access to all 14 home games this year.
Instead of a season pass, fans can also purchase single-game and doubleheader passes for basketball through the athletics website. Single game passes go for $5 for a men's or women's game, while doubleheader passes cost $8. A doubleheader pass gives fans access to both games during five of the MEAC twin bills this year.
The video stream for all basketball games will carry the live feed from the NSU Sports Network radio broadcast, which can also be heard on Hot 91.1 FM for both teams throughout the entire 2018-19 season.
The Spartan Showcase Video Streaming link can be found on the front page of the athletics website, under the Multimedia tab at the top. The link can also be found among the social ads in the bottom right next to the scrolling scoreboard.
Each broadcast will have a desktop DVR function, allowing fans to pause, rewind and fast forward at their convenience within the live event. Each game will automatically be available in the on-demand video section immediately after the conclusion of the event.
Along with desktop and laptop computers, the Spartan Showcase Video Streaming webpage is also accessible via all Android and Apple tablets and smartphones. Fans can watch any live or on-demand Norfolk State athletics event while on-the-go.
Subscribers must create a username and password prior to making a purchase. Fans who purchase game-day passes (single game or doubleheader) must buy them the day of the actual contest.
