Sports Information

The Youngstown State University Sports Information staff handles publicity for the school's 18 intercollegiate varsity teams.

The office produces literature about the teams, maintains the official website and coordinates all interview requests for players, coaches and staff.

The office also maintains historical records on each team and actively collects information, photos and records. If you have any historical information you feel could be of use to our office, please contact a member of the Sports Information Staff.

Questions and comments are always welcome.
