Grace Media, LLC introduces playoffs widget

  • by

Grace Media, LLC introduced the addition of a playoffs widget to the companies’ growing portfolio of content-delivery services.

The playoff widget displays the playoffs schedule and results in the order of the playoff bracket making it easy for fans to see “who’s next” on the playoff trail. The widget, which covers the University Interscholastic League (UIL), Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) and Southwest Preparatory Conference (SPC) postseason, is updated with results and the next round’s pairings without any interaction by the client.

With one line of code, the playoffs information can be embedded seamlessly on a website giving the client one less screen to update. Customization of the widget includes displaying multiple sports in the same widget, defining the brackets displayed and changing the size.

Examples of the widget can be found at:

  • http://theathleticsdepartment.com/four/widgets/demo/40/

Early adopters of the playoffs widget are  The El Paso TimesVype.com, and TexasHSFootball.com. Grace Media, LLC also introduced a widget to display football standings and schedules in the fall.

Grace Media is the publisher of TheAthleticsDepartment.com, a one-of-its kind Texas high school athletics history website archiving Texas high school post season results and honor teams (All-District, All-State, etc.).  Grace Media, LLC, was founded by former sports newspaper reporter/editor Sarah Hornaday.  Recently partnered with the Texas High School Coaches Association, Grace Media hosts the first regional football poll voted on by Texas high school coaches.
