After a difficult, uncertain offseason this past year, the East Leopards pulled off a very successful season! Coach Bowers and the Leopards finished the season on a 6 game winning streak before falling to the eventual Utah State Champions, Corner Canyon. East earned a #5 position on the 2020 High School Football America Utah Top 10 and we were very happy to have them using GameStrat throughout the season! Coach Bowers switched to GameStrat, but unlike most others who make the switch from Hudl Sideline, the Leopards switched from SkyCoach! It was more than just looking for a product that worked, but finding the best possible sideline replay system to give them an advantage on game day. “We had SkyCoach before and it was good but it just didn’t give us that other option to where we could do the things we wanted to do with it. Just the difference in ease of setup and overall quality was just so much better than what we had dealt with before.”

As they head into the Pennsylvania 6A State Championship game this week we were lucky enough to chat for a few minutes with Head Coach Tim Roken and Assistant Coach Bill Morris of the St. Joseph's Prep Hawks. The Hawks are top dogs both in the state of Pennsylvania and also nationally, currently ranked #1 in PA and ranked #7 nationally (via High School Football America). Like so many others they made the switch to GameStrat this past offseason to set themselves up with the best possible sideline replay system. “There is no comparison to Hudl Sideline really. My experience with GameStrat has been perfect. We’ve had no issues and all the coaches love it.

The Apopka Blue Darters are enjoying a bye week this week as they roll into the Florida 8A State Championship Playoffs next week. We had the pleasure of speaking with both Head Coach Jeff Rolson and Assistant Coach Marcus Neeson about their experience making the switch to GameStrat this past offseason. "It’s been really smooth, a lot easier than what we were using before. We haven’t had any technical issues with GameStrat. It’s been a really easy setup, it only takes about 10 minutes to get it all ready to roll.”

The Enterprise Wildcats are looking to be a dangerous team heading into the 7A Alabama State playoffs with a 7-3 record and some impressive wins under their belt, including a big upset of then 8-0 Auburn High School. We got the chance to speak with Assistant Head Coach, Jed Kennedy, about the Wildcats' experience with GameStrat this season since making the switch from SkyCoach this past offseason. "With GameStrat we’ve literally had 0 issues with getting the film on the sideline and that’s been a huge stress reliever."

This week we had the pleasure of chatting with two great coaches from the Union High School staff about their experience making the switch to GameStrat. Coach De Mashburn is the linebackers coach and main man in charge of GameStrat , while Coach Jonny Ulibarri is the WR Coach as well as being a Senior Staff member with R4 Systems. Both of them have had experience in the past with two other sideline replay companies before making the switch to GameStrat so they have a breadth of knowledge and experience when it comes to sideline replay! "It’s just so much farther ahead than any of those other programs that I’ve had experience with.”

After a rocky and uncertain offseason for everyone this year football is finally underway and the Frederick Douglass Broncos are off to a fantastic 3-1 start while being ranked 5th in the state of Kentucky (via High School Football America). We had the pleasure of chatting with Coach Evander Harris and Head Coach Nathan McPeek about their experience with GameStrat after making the switch from Hudl Sideline this offseason.

Most coaches, especially in the SoCal area, have heard of the Corona Centennial Huskies and are familiar with Head Coach, Matt Logan. Coach Logan has a very impressive track record after 23 seasons at the helm for the Huskies. He has tallied 10 Southern Section championships, along with 17 League titles. Corona Centennial has been a perennial powerhouse in the state of California, finishing the 2019 season ranked 5th in the state and 20th nationally (via MaxPreps). GameStrat has been the easiest to use, and to set up, there is a lot less equipment than with other systems.

For this edition of the GameStrat Replay of the Week we talked with two great coaches, Head Coach Frank Allelo and Offensive Coordinator Ross Woods of the East Jefferson Warriors in Louisiana. We never had any issues. We thought there may be some issues with connectivity, especially with some of the stadiums we play at, but we never had a single issue.

We had the pleasure to chat with both Head Coach Hank Sawyer and Assistant Coach Sean Banks of the Lake Taylor Titans. Last year they lead the Titans to an 8-2 regular season and rolled through the playoffs on route to becoming Virginia's Class 4 State Champs! It was a lot easier to use, a lot more user friendly

Welcome to the first playoff edition of the GameStrat Replay of the Week! We had the privilege this year to work with tons of teams that made their state playoffs so we wanted to make sure to highlight any that we can. For the first playoff edition we had the chance to talk with Coach Jeff Woltz, O-line Coach with the Colerain Cardinals in Ohio. Coach Woltz and the Cardinals have had a phenomenal season, going 9-1 before winning their first two playoff games for an 11-1 overall record. They're primed to go deep in the playoffs and we’re excited to be a part of their success!
