The Horizon League is excited to announce a new partnership with FanWord and its innovative storytelling software, FanWord Assist.

Throughout the fall semester, the Horizon League has used FanWord Assist to help create various Life In The League stories, including a story about Youngstown State Swimming & Diving Athlete, Terin Frodyma. 

FanWord Assist is a storytelling tool that was specifically designed to help college athletic departments and conferences create feature stories, game recaps, and other storytelling content more efficiently.

The Horizon League will continue to leverage FanWord Assist to further highlight the diverse and inspiring stories of its student-athletes, coaches, and alumni across its member institutions.

FanWord is one of the leading storytelling companies in college athletics. More than 75 athletic organizations leverage at least one of FanWord’s storytelling products, including programs like Nebraska, SMU, Memphis, DePaul, as well as Horizon League member, Oakland University. 

“The Horizon League is excited to make #MajorMoves and expand on our partnership with our friends at Fanword. With this partnership, we can continue highlighting the #MajorExperiences in and around the HL with greater volume on a greater stage.”

All feature stories will be hosted on The Horizon League’s new storytelling platform, LITL.horizonleague.org, which is powered by FanWord. Fans are encouraged to follow the Horizon League’s social channels to not miss out on any stories.

“We’re extremely excited to partner with The Horizon League,” said Chris Aumueller, CEO of FanWord. “The Horizon League has always been at the forefront of innovation, and we’re beyond thrilled to collaborate with them on this new initiative.” 

Member institutions within The Horizon League that are interested in exploring FanWord Assist are encouraged to contact FanWord CEO Chris Aumueller at caumueller@fanword.com to learn more. Member institutions also have access to special partnership pricing.
