Matt and Jason,
I hope all is well. My name is Kris Johnson, I played hoop at UCLA in the mid 90′s, then overseas for nearly a decade. I consult for a iPad application development company that is exhibiting at the#SSAC this weekend. Our company is called West Shore Technologies and our product is called the Sportsboard Scout, an iPad-based scouting/player evaluation solution.
Check out our booth if you were attending the conference.
