CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE via COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--Sep 11, 2001--Ignite Sports, the leading interactive sports publisher, announced today the introduction of SportsEditor(TM), a publishing system designed to enable a broad range of sports properties, including professional sports leagues, universities and conferences, major and minor league teams and governing bodies to manage and update their Web sites easily and efficiently.
SportsEditor leverages Ignite Sports` powerful sports publishing system and gives users access to and control of their Web site anywhere there is access to the Internet.
