ARLINGTON, Va. — Marymount University Athletics has entered into a new three-year partnership with FanWord, the leading AI technology and storytelling company in college sports. Through the agreement, the Saints will implement FanWord Assist, an AI-powered content creation platform built to expand and accelerate storytelling across all of Marymount's athletic programs.

FanWord Assist helps athletic communications teams produce written content such as game recaps, feature stories and player bios with greater speed and consistency. The platform gives departments the ability to tell more student-athlete stories across more channels, all while saving valuable staff time and resources.

"Marymount Athletics Communication is excited to partner with FanWord," Assistant Athletics Director for Communications Jacob Brown said. "As an institution, Marymount is consistently looking to lead the charge in new technology in an effort to sharpen up workflow, and FanWord provides that tool to our responsibilities in the Athletics Communication office."

Marymount joins a growing community of more than 225 athletics organizations across all levels partnering with FanWord, including fellow Division III programs such as Salisbury, Colorado College, Loras College, Augsburg, and Penn State Berks. The Saints' addition reflects the rising momentum of programs nationwide adopting AI-powered tools to strengthen their storytelling.

"Marymount has built an athletics community that takes real pride in its student-athletes, and we're excited to help them share those stories with a wider audience," said Chris Aumueller, CEO of FanWord. "At the Division III level, communications teams are often asked to do more with less, and that's exactly where FanWord Assist makes a difference. We can't wait to help the Saints tell more of their stories, faster, and bring their community even closer to everything that makes Marymount special."

As the demands on athletic communications continue to grow, FanWord Assist gives departments a way to keep pace, producing timely, authentic content with full editorial control and dramatically reduced turnaround. By integrating the platform into its workflow, Marymount Athletics will deepen its connection with fans, recruits and alumni while celebrating the achievements that define the Saints community.
