Live Streaming Semi-Finals

Leave a comment

The Williston Northampton Wildcats are excited to host two playoff games on campus today: boys basketball and girls hockey.

You can find the today’s tournament schedule and more information online here.

The boys basketball team will take on Tabor Academy at home at 1:00 p.m.

The girls hockey team will face St. Paul’s at home at 3:00 p.m.

Knowing that many of our families would like to watch the games from wherever they are, we’re trying a live stream service called High School Cube—as we did on Wednesday. This is a new service for us, and we hope it helps you share in the excitement on campus.

You can download the High School Cube app on your phone, and then follow the Williston Northampton Live Stream Channel. Please note: there are two Williston Northampton channels, but only the Williston Northampton Live Stream Channel will be showing the games as they are played.

Go, Wildcats!
