HancockCountySports.com partners with iHigh

HancockCountySports.com is proud to announce that it is partnering with iHigh to stream our broadcasts and provide news about the four Hancock County high schools.

The first broadcast on iHigh will be Saturday's boys basketball regional game between New Palestine and Castle. All of the HancockCountySports.com spring sports broadcasts will be streamed via iHigh, as well.

Our iHigh page: http://www.ihigh.com/hancockcountysports will also include all of the news that had previously been on this blog. For the past year, HancockCountySports.com has used two different vendors -- one to stream broadcasts and another to post news via our blog, so all news 


"This new partnership with iHigh significantly increases our ability for our customers to access and hear live broadcasts of their favorite team's games," HancockCountySports.com owner/announcer Andrew Smith said. "The archiving is longer-term. Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for our listeners to access the high-quality broadcasts that they have come to know and love."

It also allows for longer-term archiving of broadcasts -- HancockCountySports.com's current vendor archived broadcasts for only 3-5 days, while iHigh will archive them for a much longer period of time. Fans will also be able to access the broadcasts and HancockCountySports.com's news about their respective schools through both the HancockCountySports.com site and their respective school's iHigh site, increasing visibility.

"This is a big step forward for us," Smith said. "The mission of HancockCountySports.com is to serve our community's four high schools with high-quality broadcasts and coverage. This allows us many more avenues to reach our four schools' fans and, in turn, our community."

For the time being, live broadcasts will also be streamed on the www.justin.tv/hancockcountysports site, so users with iPhone/iPads (with the requisite apps) or Android phones can continue to access the broadcasts.


HancockCountySports.com will produce more than 50 broadcasts of football, boys basketball, girls basketball, volleyball, boys soccer, baseball and softball this season. Our staff includes broadcasters Andrew Smith, Chris Lambert, Mike Jackson, Keith Meyers and Greg Elkins.

  1. When searching for the best slow pitch softball bats, there are a couple things you should consider. First, if you are going to be playing at home, a wood bat will give you a little more of an edge because it is a harder wood. Wood bats are also more durable and allow more weight to be placed onto the bat. Check out this site to know more about softball game.
