This is a little bit of a slow period for prep sports, with winter sports over and many spring sports teams waiting until after spring break next week to get going. However, track and field season did start on Tuesday, and this morning Kosmo received a special request from spies to try and deliver a message to track coaches about reporting scores.
It's OK to fax scores to (248) 332-8885, but please, please, please, make sure the faxes are legible.
Too many times handwritten faxes come in and the spies can barely make out the writing.
When that happens, we're simply not going to put the results in the paper or online.
Period, end of story. We're not going to badly misspell a kids name and thus make parents everywhere understandably angry, so it's up to the coaches to make sure they either send in faxes with typed results or incredibly clear and legible handwriting.
If need be, coaches can also e-mail results by 10 p.m. to prepsports@oakpress.com or call our prep line at (248) 745-4775.
This is a heartfelt plea for those who decide to fax that if you want to make sure names are spelled right and listed, please make sure to send in legible faxes.
