Opus Interactive Teams with Portland Lumberjax

Jan. 8, 2009 - PRLog -- Opus Interactive, a cutting-edge managed services provider of professional hosting solutions, today announced it has teamed with the Portland Lumberjax in its quest to return to the Championship game.

The Portland Lumberjax, the city’s professional lacrosse team, is entering its fourth year in the league and is hoping to return to the Championship game, where they were edged out by the Buffalo Bandits, 14-13. The team made an improbable run to the finals last year after finishing the season 6-10.

“Opus Interactive is committed to involving itself in the community and we’re thrilled to sponsor the Lumberjax as part of that ongoing effort,” stated Jeremy Sherwood, Opus Interactive’s Strategic Account Manager. “With lacrosse being one of the fastest growing sports in the United States, we saw this opportunity to work with the West Division Champions as an opportunity we couldn’t pass up.”

In turn, Opus Interactive saw a great opportunity to bring their technology expertise to the Lumberjax hosting and email environments. “Anyone who has been to our website knows it had gotten a bit, we’ll say sloppy, over the past few years.  So, when the folks from Opus Interactive approached me about upgrading our systems I was very intrigued.  I quickly went from intrigued to impressed when we had our first meeting and toured their facility.  Opus opened my eyes to internet and website possibilities, security and backup, that I had never dreamed of,” stated Brian Silcott, Executive Vice President at Portland Lumberjax. “I am excited for the launch of our new site and very confident in Opus’ ability to keep it secure, up to date and, most importantly, online”
