NCAA College World Series App Is Must Have Sports Tech
The 2015 NCAA Men’s College World Series app sponsored by Coca-Cola Zero aims to be a must use component to augment the collegiate baseball digital fan experience. The tournament begins on June 13 in Omaha, Nebraska and is expected to be another thrilling live championship event for fans watching on TV, online and in the seats at TD Ameritrade. The Sports Techie community blog thanks Turner Sports and the NCAA for sharing the latest technological details about the app’s functionality for our readers and followers across the nation and around the world.
CWS App
College baseball fans will want to peruse the content provided by NCAA Corporate Champion sponsor Coke Zero at the NCAA.com website delivered in real-time during games as a compliment to television coverage on ESPN. The sports technology app is also perfect as a second screen companion because of score updates, the real-time photo gallery stream and the opportunity to use the Live Game Broadcasts to hear each game’s audio and video streams.
Those in attendance at TD Ameritrade Park Omaha can use this NCAA sports tech tool to find out the complete CWS tournament, fan fest schedules and other fun attractions. Use the interactive map to find special activities. Fans that need ticketing information, merchandise listings or the latest news will find it on the free app. Finally, the new Fan Fest Connect feature is sure to be a social hit for the players, family and friends as well as any fan of the sport that follows college baseball.
Download the app beginning today at the Apple Store and Google Play.

Interactive data visualizations complied by Qlik launches this tournament and will provide stats, analytics and breakdowns of the action. Use the interactive visualizations to compare the remaining teams at the rounds proceed throughout June until the Champion is crowned.
