New York, NY (March 3, 2011) – GameChanger, the mobile application that turns stats logged by scorekeepers on the field into thousands of live data points and content for fans to follow online, has teamed up with MaxPreps.com, the online high school sports leader and a CBSSports.com site. The partnership, which will initially cover high school baseball and softball, is designed to bring more reliable high school sports data to the web, faster. MaxPreps.com will now publish game data generated by the GameChanger mobile scorekeeping application.
As part of the agreement, MaxPreps.com will encourage its network of over 10,000 baseball and softball coaches to replace traditional paper scorebooks with GameChanger's mobile scorekeeping technology. MaxPreps.com teams that use the app will see their post-game stats and scores delivered immediately to MaxPreps.com.
"MaxPreps.com is committed to helping coaches save time," said Andy Beal, President of MaxPreps.com. "By promoting GameChanger's mobile technology, we're working to help coaches manage their team's stats and share them with their players and fans instantly with the push of a button. Eager parents, fans and players no longer have to wait to see reliable results online, and coaches can spend their time doing what they do best: coaching."
"It's exciting to partner with a company that's just as passionate about high school sports as we are," said Ted Sullivan, CEO of GameChanger Media. "Together, MaxPreps.com and GameChanger are bringing features historically reserved for big leaguers to high school sports, and in doing so, shifting the entire way high school sports teams manage their data. We're thrilled to team up with MaxPreps.com, whose reach and reputation in the high school sports market is unmatched."
