All of the media outlets (and any online visitors to the ESG official site) are at the mercy of the ESG workers' ability to get results up on the web site.
When we're at games, we post the scores immediately. When we're not, we have to wait for ESG people to post the scores, and they don't always come. An example? The Hudson Valley women's scholastic soccer team played this morning at 8:30. There is still no score posted. Anywhere. It's maddening. And we've got to finish the newspaper in the next couple of hours.
