Verification

This is exactly why I ask coaches to verify what is on the rosters I print from MaxPreps and make any additions/subtractions necessary before filling in my book.

Why would you even use such a resource in the first place? I would think that not many people from a school would be constantly updating that information. I have even found the school websites are almost never updated. I would think that would cause all kinds of problems with information.

At my game on Friday, the PA announcer printed the roster from some internet source and got the wrong school.

Accurate Here!

The schools in my part of Southern California all do a pretty good job of at least putting a roster on MaxPreps which is always accurate! If they don't then I'll have that particular head coach write in his team and mark his starters.

You cannot even get updated information about the current team on the school's websites around here, let alone a high school site like MaxPreps. That has to be a regional issue that most of us probably would be weary to use.
