PITTSBURGH – The third-string goalie for the U.S. women’s Olympic hockey team is “tweeting” at motorists through a billboard campaign organized by the Pittsburgh-area university she attends.
Brianne McLaughlin, a senior nursing major from the Cleveland area, plays hockey for Robert Morris University in Moon Township. Thursday night, her U.S. team will be playing Canada for a gold medal at the 2010 Vancouver games.
But her time at the Olympics is also letting Robert Morris call attention to its hockey program by featuring real-time Twitter messages from McLaughlin on four Pittsburgh-area billboards.
Her address is twitter(at)BrianneMcL.
