A weekly video series on Instagram allows LVC students to keep tabs on athletic news around campus.<\/p>\n

The show is called Coffee with Connor and is hosted by Connor Matsinger, a sophomore business major and defenseman on the men\u2019s hockey team. Matsinger humorously delivers updates on athletics and other school news. Coffee with Connor provides a great opportunity for viewers to stay updated on their favorite sports teams, while also getting a glimpse at how athletes interact behind the scenes.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope viewers can watch it and get information about different teams and events at the school,\u201d Matsinger said. \u201cI want to have it come across in a more convenient and comical way.\u201d<\/p>\n

What started as a simple iPhone-produced series that mainly discussed hockey news has evolved into quite a production. New to the series this year is a musical introduction based on the hit television series \u201cFull House,\u201d a new green-screen \u201cstudio\u201d and a team of dedicated editors who provide images and graphics to give the series a more professional look.<\/p>\n

Each episode carries a different theme, based on the guests. Themes so far this year include: captains, rookies, goalies, and dual-sport athletes. Guests usually start by answering a few questions about their sport or academic life before they get a chance to answer some more light-hearted questions. It\u2019s a great way for viewers to see the athletes\u2019 personalities outside the lines.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy favorite part is interacting with the interviewees,\u201d Matsinger said. \u201cI love getting positive feedback around campus that people enjoy watching the show.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moving forward, Matsinger intends to keep the series going throughout his time at LVC and hopes to see the show continue to evolve.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to see it grow in viewers obviously, but more than that I want it to be something everyone on campus uses to get information about what\u2019s going on with their favorite team or club,\u201d Matsinger said.<\/p>\n
