All State Baseball Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I know some schools have a stats column on the KHSAA website where they can enter stats for each game and it got me to thinking, should their be a column for stats for the springs sports? Baseball, Softball, Volleyball? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KY Thorobred Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I think it would be a great idea to get exposure to some players that aren't from traditional powers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jim Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I thought schools were fined if they didn't post stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCDAWGS19 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I thought schools were fined if they didn't post stats. Basketball, football, and soccer are only ones required. Volleyball starts next year. Not sure why baseball/softball don't have to. They're the most stats-driven sports we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're the most stats-driven sports we have. Probably because stats for these sports would be so inconsistent. Decisions as to hit vs error is only the start of the confusion.

random925 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Probably because stats for these sports would be so inconsistent. Decisions as to hit vs error is only the start of the confusion. But that is just part of the sport. The scorekeeper has to decide if it was a hit or an error on the fielder. Most of the time it's a non-issue. Besides, you don't think basketball stats get flubbed some? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All State Baseball Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 I wish they would. I think that if they are making the other sports keep stats up to date they should make baseball adn softball as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy2tone Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Probably because KHSAA hasn't spent any money on computer server to handle so much data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Basketball, football, and soccer are only ones required. Volleyball starts next year. Not sure why baseball/softball don't have to. They're the most stats-driven sports we have. Probably because KHSAA hasn't spent any money on computer server to handle so much data. I'm not positive about softball, but I believe the KHSAA told the ADs and baseball head coaches around the state that they have to start posting game stats to MaxPreps and then the KHSAA will be downloading the stats to their scoreboard from MaxPreps. It sounds to me like the runaround from school to MaxPreps to KHSAA could confirm what @Tommy2tone said about the KHSAA's servers. I've noticed that there are extremely few programs posting stats, though. Around Northern Kentucky it looks like Campbell County, Conner, Cov Cath, and Holmes have done a good job of reporting stats for all of their games, but I didn't find anyone else who had all of their games reported. Most teams haven't reported at all. It looks like around the state-at-large, the reporting - at best - has been extremely poor. Does it mean that those schools aren't having stats recorded for all of their games? Or does it mean that they're not bothering to report their stats?

Tommy2tone Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Most everyone is using the game changer program for scoring. If they aren't, they should. I am sure there is some geek out there can find a way to have one system receive the stats. I think that is the way football does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theoldguy Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I don't use game changer (hey I am old school and I love my scorebook) but I just add my scorebook up and post it to MaxPreps by hand and presto, it winds up on the KHSAA scoreboard web site as REQUIRED by the KHSAA along with Pitch Counts for our pitchers. Doesn't take much longer than what it does to post the stats to the Football and or Basketball sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet16 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Yes, if it is required for basketball and football then other sports should as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
