The Canisius Athletic Department and NeuLion are proud to launch a new web design for the school’s official athletic department’s website, GoGriffs.com.
GoGriffs.com has been the premier source for information on Canisius athletics since summer of 2008. The site has undergone three redesigns and the latest edition proves to be the most innovative layout to date. A new, dynamic presentation with a cleaner layout, easier-to-read menus and a focus on social media platforms greatly enhance the viewing experience for readers while continuing to provide high-quality content that Golden Griffin fans have come to enjoy.
Fans will notice an emphasis on social media, especially Twitter, with the official athletic department Twitter handle (@GoGriffs) on the home page and each of the 20 varsity programs’ Twitter feeds appearing on each individual sports page. The new video-on-demand section is cleaner and allows fans to watch video content with fewer clicks. A new side-menu allows fans to find what they’re looking for in a more timely fashion.
The new GoGriffs.com will also be accompanied by a mobile site and with APPs available through the Apple store and via Android’s Google Play.
