The Owls will take the court under a new center-hung scoreboard, which will bring more than 1800 square feet of dynamic content, including live action, replays, game animations, team logos, student athlete introductions and real-time statistics to the 10,200 seat venue. Complementing the center-hung scoreboard will be a new ANC Sports' LED ribbon system spread across the Liacouras Center's 200 Level façade.
Temple University and ANC Sports Enterprises formed a multiyear partnership to enhance the fan experience at The Liacouras Center through the new video system which will also feature high-definition quality visuals across more than 1.7 million pixels. ANC Sports spearhead the design, installation and operation of the new display system. The center-hung structure will also include four ANC Sports' scoring LED displays capable of full motion graphics, each measuring more than 3 feet high and 10 feet wide. Floating beneath the scoring matrixes on the center-hung structure will be an ANC Sports' LED ring which will display animated University branding, crowd prompts and sponsor acknowledgments. The new signage expands ANC's relationship with Temple University, which began featuring the company's DLP® Courtside Signage for events at the Liacouras Center in 2007.
“Temple University is committed to creating a lively venue atmosphere for its student-athletes, students, alumni and fans,” said Bill DradshawTemple University's Director of Athletics. “This new display system will create an emotional environment at the Liacouras Center which will change how sports, music, graduation and other events are experienced on our campus.”
Richard Rumer, Associate Vice President for Business Services at Temple University, and Fran Rodowicz, General Manager of the Liacouras Center, concurred, " We are excited about the impact the new board will have on the overall fan experience both at our basketball games with videos and replays as well as the impact on some of the other quality events hosted at the Liacouras Center."
