I do get text messages for college hockey through our T-Mobile 
t-zones service. They have an area where you can pick alerts for specific 
sports and teams and I was amazed that they actually had college hockey
teams as an option. :)

I know when I used to work up in the press box at CC sometimes, a lot of 
the online score updates depended on how frequently the host school called 
SportsTicker to update their score. I know we used to call after the end 
of every period, and some schools would call after every goal, while 
others wouldn't call until the end of the game.
