The Northeastern University Sports Information office handles the publicity of all 18 varsity sports. Sports information staff members coordinate game day media services, coordinate interviews, conduct press conferences, produces publications, compiles statistics and historical information and maintains the official website of Northeastern Athletics, GoNU.com.
Interviews
All interviews with student-athletes, coaches and administrative staff must be coordinated through the sports information office.
On game days, student-athletes will not be available for interviews until post-game. Press conferences will take place after a short cooling-off period. Head coaches and players will be made available to answer questions. Members of the media wishing to speak to a player/coach one-on-one should notify a member of the sports information office prior to the end of a contest. All Northeastern locker rooms are closed to the media.
On non-game days, interviews must be coordinated through the sports information office at least 24 hours in advance. A student-athlete's phone number and e-mail address will not be released unless that student-athlete gives permission. Student-athletes will not be asked to miss class time. The sports information office will do its best to provide an interview time that is mutually convenient for both the player/coach and the media representative.
Credential Requests
For men's & women's basketball and men's & women's hockey, requests should be made at least two days before the contest. Late requests will be handled according to space limitations. All credentials that have not been mailed or picked up at the sports information office will be left at the will-call table at the respective venues.
Game Notes & Statistics
Game notes and statistics will be made available to the media at every men's & women's basketball and men's & women's hockey game. Notes and statistics for each game can also be downloaded as a PDF file from GoNU.com.
Parking
Parking is extremely limited around the Northeastern campus. Media parking passes are not available. For men's basketball and men's hockey games at Matthews Arena, members of the media are encouraged to use the Camden Parking Area, which is opened to the public free of charge two hours before game time. Those wishing to park closer to the arena can use the Gainsborough Garage, which charges an hourly rate. Please check the campus map for further details.
