MaxPreps: High School Sports

I enjoy reading the reviews of games in the spot light as well as those teams that may have lots of grass growing in the path on the way to find them ! I have found MaxPreps to be accurate and only take the word of trusted on spot reviewing for their reports ! It’s nice knowing that people will get an honest review of beach game on the Texas Trail to cover the Greatest Football on the planet which includes the overrated California Prep Schools which are built at the expense of others that may have produced talent to better their teams, but before you know it they are playing for the top schools in California ! Private Church affiliated schools in Texas do it to some extent, but I see many schools giving opportunity to more student talent than the California schools . Just my opinion, but if I need some enlightening as to the ways of California gluttony in many practices , I am surely willing to change a view if presented in a professional , believable way with facts to back it up ! Facts are sorely missing in our country today to back up a stated position, but reporters report them as truth anyway with no repercussions for their actions !

I’m a life long follower of the Livonia Bulldog football program and a huge fan of the group of men who lead them. I’ve always been ready and willing to give back to the program that gave me so much. Unfortunately the last couple of years my son had decided that he would have to give it up to pursue his travel hockey goals. This is fine with me but unfortunately I’m not able to see many games in person anymore and I don’t have the time to volunteer either. The upside is that because of max preps I am able to follow my coaches and team from wherever our hockey schedule takes us. Cleveland for the opener, Buffalo last week, Canada this week, and Detroit the next. Thanks so much for your service and for the people that take the time to update throughout the game! My dogs are wherever I am and I am very grateful. Joshua Martucio

Just found this yesterday in App Store. Our high school girls and boys basketball had games last night, and minutes after games ended, scores were posted. Am following other schools and scores posted immediately. Have and still using ScoreStream and mhsaa app, but max prep beats both hands down. Today, it even posted rankings locally, statewide, and national.. That said, hope max prep covers track and field, golf, and competitive cheer. My niece is doing competitive cheer as a varsity hs sport, but not many site apps cover it. Also, local paper comes out weekly, and majority of sports coverage is basketball, football, volleyball, and soccer. Update. Just received a response from developer. Thanks for the feedback and looking forward to future upgrades to app

As a high school volleyball coach, I depend on MaxPreps to keep up with our competitors. We are a rural team and no single newspaper covers all teams in our conference or region. Also we encourage other coaches in our conference/region to maintain their team stats on MaxPreps. Yes this helps in scouting, but it’s more important at the All Conference, All Region, and All State selection meetings because the player has a history and coaches don’t get questioned about stats being made up. My only frustration is that it runs as an iPhone app on my iPad, which I mostly use in landscape not portrait mode. The iPad app should be responsive to the screen size and orientation.

MaxPreps does a fantastic job cataloging teams throughout the country. Every now and then, teams will upset a higher ranked team. Upsets make football or any other athletic contest interesting. I suppose that analytics, statistics, individual player performances, returning players and school traditions go into the ranking. It would be nice to know exactly what goes into the numbers. There have been changes in ranking whether a team has won or lost. Most likely by outcomes of common opponents or other mitigating circumstances. Overall, as a score keeper, I cherish being involved in my teams ranking. Go #MaxPrep!!
