With basketball season in full swing, we wanted to discuss what we've seen from the files generated by the different scoring softwares you are using and share what we think is the easiest way to get complete stats into the PrestoSports Network for your games. 

If you need to get basketball stats into our Network, here's what you should know:

PrestoSports Stats Entry

If you are using: If you are using our stats entry app, the stats will automatically be associated with the event. The packed file and XML will be available for download or email in the app and in Game day. 
If your oponent is using: There's no action required by you to get your stats into our Network. 
What we recommend: Using our app is the quickest way to get stats to your event.

Stat Crew Legacy

If you are using: No changes here from previous years. You can upload a packed file or XML and your event will have complete stats.
If your opponent is using: Your stats will be in our Network when your opponent uploads the packed file or XML. You don't have to wait up at night for him or her to email it to you. 
What we recommend: Upload the packed file. Edits can be made with our stats entry...you no longer have to make the changes in Stat Crew and reupload the packed file.  

Stat Crew Next Generation

If you are using: Upload the XML. The packed files we have seen from Stat Crew Next Generation do not contain any plays, so once uploaded, your box score will appear as a manual entry one. It will have team and player stats but no play-by-play.
If your opponent is using: Ask that he or she uploads the XML.
What we recommend: Upload the XML so that your box score has the play-by-play included. Make edits in Stat Crew Next Generation and reupload the new XML.

DakStats

If you are using: Upload the XML. 
If your opponent is using: Ask that he or she uploads the XML.
What we recommend: Upload the XML. Make edits in DakStats and upload the new XML.

CyberSports

If you are using: Upload the XML. 
If your opponent is using: Ask that he or she uploads the XML.
What we recommend: Upload the XML. Make edits in CyberSports and upload the new XML.
