New feature will be a multimedia event

As I head into each new season, I try to come up with something to enhance our coverage.

This year, each Friday night of football season, we will have a Game of the Week.

This feature will provide a multimedia experience for our online readers, which will include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and our website.

Each Friday night beginning at 6:30, you can follow along on any of our social media platforms to see comments from both coaches, photos, live updates throughout the games and scores from other games as we receive them.

You will also be able to ask questions via Twitter by using the hashtag #Game. We will try to answer as many questions as possible throughout the evening.

Once the game is complete, check out www.leaderpub.com for more photos, game stories and videos.
