Coaches: Send In Your Scores Thanks to all coaches that sent in scores last week. I was very happy with the response.  Another reminder – Please send along your overall record when sending your scores. Coaches can e-mail scores to Jason Eslinger at jasoneslinger@ighsau.org.

Regional Pairings To Be Released Soon:  Regional pairings will be released late next week or the early part of the week after that.

New Improvements to QuikStats:  All of the speed and data base issues involving QuikStats have seemingly been resolved. If you quit using the system out of frustration – I urge you to give the program another shot. Our developer has also added some new and useful tools. There is now a section under the access side of stats where you can view any teamÕs season stats. We have also developed a way to sort conference and overall stats. Coaches would have to go back and through games prior to June 9th and designate whether that contest was a conference or non-conference game (the default is non-conference). DonÕt delete the game to make this change! If youÕre unsure how to make this change – contact Jason Eslinger at the IGHSAU and he can walk you through it.

Finally – teams can now submit game notes for any game. If anything special happens, you can type a brief recap in the game field. This will be a useful took for those that have to send reports into local media.

I think weÕve come a long way with the program in a short amount of time and a great deal of thanks goes out to our developer Andrew BradyÕs hard work. Thanks also for your patience as we got the program working up to speed.

New Memo Released: There is also a new softball memo that was posted on the website Friday. There are lots of important information and situations in the memo that should be read by all coaches.
