BROOKINGS, S.D. – Dec. 3, 2014 – Daktronics (NASDAQ-DAKT) of Brookings, South Dakota, has been asked by Lubbock Christian University of Lubbock, Texas, to design, manufacture and install a new LED video display for their on-campus basketball and volleyball facility, the Rip Griffin Center. Installation for this project is tentatively scheduled for this month. 

“Lubbock Christian University is extremely excited about the new video board being produced and installed by Daktronics,” said LCU Athletic Director Paul Hise. “We believe that this video board will create a unique atmosphere for our student-athletes, coaches and fans at The Rip. Matt Braegelmann and his team have been great throughout the entire process, and we look forward to seeing the finished product.”

The Chaps new video display will incorporate 10 millimeter line spacing and measure approximately 25 feet wide by 8 feet high. This display will incorporate excellent image clarity and contrast with wide angle visibility and is capable of showing one large image to highlight live video and instant replays. It can also be divided into separate windows to show a variety of vivid graphics, colorful animations, up-to-the-minute statistics, scoring information and sponsor advertisements.

In addition to the equipment installation, Lubbock Christian will also receive a bank of hours for the creation of digital content to be produced and delivered by Daktronics Creative Services. This content will consist of any mixture of sponsorship messages, crowd prompts, headshots, game opens and venue announcements at the request of Lubbock Christian University.

“Daktronics is very proud to partner with LCU for the upgrades to the Rip Griffin Center. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Paul and his staff on this project,” said Sales Representative Matt Braegelmann. “These upgrades will greatly enhance the game day experience at The Rip and is something all LCU fans can be proud of for many years to come.”
