FloWrestling extends partnership with Chattanooga's Southern Scuffle

The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and FloSports have announced that FloWrestling has extended its partnership with the prestigious Southern Scuffle. Since coming to Chattanooga in 2012, the Southern Scuffle has grown into the best in-season collegiate wrestling tournament in the country.

FloWrestling has streamed the tournament, exclusively for the past four years and has been a huge part of the growth in popularity and prestige of the event.

“I am excited that we are continuing the partnership between FloWrestling and the Southern Scuffle,” stated head wrestling coach Heath Eslinger. “Flo has been on the cutting edge in the way they broadcast our event and that has helped deliver the Scuffle to a national audience.

“Their innovative approach, along with some outstanding competitors, will continue to ensure that the Southern Scuffle is the best in-season wrestling event in the nation.”

As a part of this extended agreement, the Southern Scuffle will also utilize FloArena software. FloArena is the most complete and turnkey event management software in the market, allowing wrestling tournament and dual meet organizers to

offer real-time scoring updates across multiple mats simultaneously. FloArena archives every match instantly and links those matches to the brackets.

“We are ecstatic to once again bring a tournament of the caliber of the Southern Scuffle into the homes of viewers all over the country,” FloWrestling Rights Acquisition Manager Joe Williamson said. “FloArena improves the way fans interact and engage with wrestling tournaments, and we’re excited the Southern Scuffle and college wrestling fans will be able to utilize FloArena.”

This year’s Southern Scuffle is again scheduled for Jan. 1-2, 2017 at UTC’s McKenzie Arena.
