Sports Information

The University of Tennessee Southern Sports Information Office, in conjunction with Presto Sports, presents official information on UT Southern Athletics at its official site, UTSFirehawks.com.

The primary purpose of the UTS Sports Information Office is to serve as liaison between UTS athletics' administration, coaches and student-athletes and the local, state and national media.

The UTS SID Office also serves to facilitate the requests of UTS officials and athletes as well as print and electronic media in order to ensure the best possible media coverage of UTS's 19 sports.

Interview Requests

Media wanting to interview UT Southern student-athletes, coaches or staff must contact the sports information office, which will arrange the interview.

Media members are invited and encouraged to attend practice sessions. A media relations representative will assist you in interviews after the practice's completion. Team meetings before, during or after practice are private and not accessible to the media.

It is requested that media give the sports information office enough advanced warning when they want to arrange an interview or attend a practice. Last minute interview requests cannot be guaranteed to be honored.

Interviews that can not be conducted at that time will be arranged around the student-athlete or coach's schedule. Phone numbers of student-athletes will NOT be released to the media and media should NEVER attempt to call student-athletes at home.

Post-game interviews following home contests are also handled via the media relations department. After a brief cooling off period, coaches and requested student-athletes will be made available for media access. Locker rooms following contests are closed to the media.

The media relations office will do everything to respect the requests of the media and it is expected that the media respect the policies set forth by the sports information office.

Visiting Media

Media members are invited and encouraged to attend all UTS home contests. Any media that wish to cover home events should contact the UTS sports information office to request a media credential.

It is requested that media give the sports information office enough time to process credential requests. Last minute credential requests cannot be guaranteed to be honored.

Visiting radio crews should also alert the sports information office if a phone or internet line is requested.

If you have any gameday-related questions, please contact the sports information office.
