COACHES, PLEASE REPORT RESULTS
HobbsDailyReport.com encourages head coaches or their representatives to report live scores as soon as possible after events are completed. Report traditional box scores with score by quarters and individual scoring that adds up to team scoring totals (first and last names of all double figure scorers). Also, we’d be glad to publish any photos (with IDs) and credit the person who shot the photo. Regular reporting will enable us to provide timely basketball standings.
HobbsDailyReport.com
Editor’s note: HobbsDailyReport.com posts all complete box scores provided by varsity basketball teams in the South Fork 2A, Northwestern Foothills 2A and Northwestern 3A-4A and has e-mailed requests for reports to the 23 athletic departments of the schools in those leagues.
If you’re interested in seeing boxes from games in those conferences, please encourage the head coaches or someone within the basketball program to e-mail the boxes to chobbs001@att.net as soon as possible after the game.
We generally try to post them by at least midnight or by early the next morning.
