Conway Corporation announces plans to broadcast away games live

Conway Corporation has been broadcasting Wampus Cat football for 15 years and this year is proud to announce Wampus Cats to Go. For the first time, all away games will be broadcast live on Friday nights on Conway Corporation Channel 5 and streamed live on YouTube.  

With Wampus Cats to Go fans will have the ability to watch road games live on Conway Corp. Channel 5 and on any internet connected device. Conway Regional Health System will serve as the 5 Sports sponsor for the season.

“Fans loved it when we streamed the playoff games last year,” said Conway Corp. CEO Richard Arnold. “This year they will be able to watch the Wampus Cats live away games on the go. They can watch at home or in the stands, streaming directly to their smartphones to watch replays from their seats in the stands.”

Jeff Matthews and Jim Files return as the Voice of the Wampus Cats and are looking forward to the new season that kicks off on Friday, Sept. 4, on the road at Cabot.  

“I’m more excited about this season than any we have had,” Matthews said. “Being able to bring the images of Wampus Cat Football road games into the homes of fans and onto their streaming devices is something we are thrilled about.”

The Wampus Cats are coming off their first undefeated regular season in 37 years and are led by senior quarterback Breylin Smith, a three-year starter for Coach Clint Ashcraft.

Replays of all games will be shown on Channel 5 at 11 a.m. Saturday and 8 p.m. Thursday and anytime on Conway Corp Local OnDemand Channel 200.
