Evangel Christian Joins the Widget Ranks

It isn’t often that an 11-time state football champion, one that stands as one of the all-time greats in the history of America high school football, joins your media team. But that’s exactly what happened on the day when Shreveport (La.) Evangel Christian Academy signed up to use the MaxPreps.com widget:

Though Evangel lost last week in the Louisiana state championship game in New Orleans to another storied opponent – John Curtis – it still went 12-2 this season. It’s only other loss came on the road against Gatorade national player of the year, Garrett Gilbert, and Austin Lake Travis.

MaxPreps Data Widget Has Arrived

November 25, 2008

Dear Web Content Manager:

The MaxPreps.com data widget is now available and ready for immediate deployment.

Enjoy the same great content syndication service that major newspapers and television stations across the country have been receiving for years from MaxPreps, America’s Source for High School Sports.

The widget allows sites such as yours to receive all MaxPreps schedules, results, standings, leaderboards, rankings and player statistical data for your favorite schools and coverage-area teams. This is not a link, bur rather an imbedded and robust content-generating module.

The widget is easy to install and can be functioning on behalf of your company or organization within minutes. It may be customized to draw data from one school or up to 150 schools. The choice is yours and it’s free.

Simply select the sport (s) and the team (s) you wish to receive data for, generate the corresponding .html code and upload the coding on the designated page; MaxPreps’ data will begin working instantly on behalf of you, your web site, your school (s) and your entire sports community.

Please contact me if you have any questions. And thank you for considering MaxPreps for your online data needs.

Sincerely,

Jim
