MacsLive

MacsLive is the official broadcast home of the Yeshiva University Maccabees and the Red Sarachek Basketball Tournament. Our mission statement is "to spread the joy of YU Basketball and the Sarachek Tournament, and provide an opportunity for YU students to gain experience in a broadcast media organization." It is with this that we do not operate for profit. All revenue generated from our services is reinvested into furthering MacsLive's mission. MacsLive works together with numerous departments within YU, including Athletics, Admissions, Marketing, and the Office of the President. At the same time, we are an official YU club, and are fully administered by YU students. In addition to broadcasting every men's basketball home game and other contests of high importance, we provide full coverage of the Macs, as well as quality content to keep fans engaged with the team. Because we are completely run by students, we are able to obtain an insider's perspective which can be matched by no other college in Division 3. With the Macs' increased success as of late, MacsLive answered the call for a higher quality production. We have evolved from a middle-of-the-road broadcast to one of the best in Division 3, unarguably due to the incredible passion of MacsLive's recent student leaders. During the 2019-20 men's basketball season, over 32,000 unique users visited MacsLive.com, shattering our previous high. We are the exclusive broadcaster of Sarachek Tournament games. Named after legendary coach Bernard "Red" Sarachek, the best Jewish teams in North America compete in the annual five-day tournament. Sarachek began in 1992, and we have covered it since 2003. Recent years have seen a spike in viewership, with 14,000 unique users tuning in to the 2019 tournament.
