PORTLAND, Ore. – GNAC.TV, the online video-streaming portal of the Great Northwest Athletic Conference, has undergone a significant redesign which will feature a number of upgrades that will make watching conference events more viewer-friendly in 2014-15, GNAC commissioner Dave Haglund announced.

“These improvements are intended to enhance the viewing experience for all of our fans, and we appreciate the effort by our partners at Stretch Internet in making these happen,” said Haglund. “Most important, virtually every one of these upgrades is available on the video portals of the conference's full members, all of whom are part of the GNAC.TV family."

Among the enhancements to be rolled out during the academic year:
