Big Bend Community College Taps FanWord to Elevate Viking Athletics Storytelling

MOSES LAKE, Wash. — Big Bend Community College (BBCC) has announced a new five-year partnership with FanWord, the leading AI-powered technology and storytelling company in college sports. Through this collaboration, the Vikings' athletics department will implement FanWord Assist, FanWord's content creation platform, to more efficiently produce game recaps, feature stories, player bios, and other written content that brings Viking Athletics to life.

A proud member of the Northwest Athletic Conference (NWAC), Big Bend Community College fields competitive programs in baseball, basketball, volleyball, softball,while its wrestling program competes in the NJCAA, serving more than 150 student-athletes. With FanWord Assist, the Vikings are equipped with a powerful tool to spotlight the people and programs that define the BBCC experience, both on and off the field.

"We are excited to partner with FanWord to elevate how we tell the stories of our student-athletes, coaches, and programs," said Benjamin Griffin, Athletic Director at Big Bend Community College. "This collaboration will allow us to better connect with our community and showcase the incredible work happening across Viking Athletics."

FanWord Assist is purpose-built to help athletic communications teams create high-quality storytelling content at scale, without straining limited resources, giving departments the ability to consistently share the stories that matter most to their community.

FanWord currently works with over 200 athletics organizations across all levels of college sports. In the NWAC, Big Bend joins fellow member institutions Edmonds, Lower Columbia, Tacoma, and Treasure Valley in leveraging FanWord Assist to deepen fan engagement and amplify authentic voices within their programs.

"We're thrilled to welcome Big Bend Community College into the FanWord family with this multi-year partnership," said Chris Aumueller, CEO of FanWord. "Community colleges are the backbone of so many student-athletes' journeys, and BBCC's commitment to its Vikings — in the classroom, in competition, and in the community — is exactly the kind of story that deserves to be told. We can't wait to help them tell it."

With this partnership, Big Bend Community College takes a significant step forward in elevating its storytelling capabilities and connecting its athletics community to fans, alumni, and future Vikings.
