NLS for Basketball - Post Game Edits

Your version of NCAA LiveStats does not come equipped to edit a game once it is finalized. However, to comply with NCAA rules regarding post game statistics requests, NCAA LiveStats can be unlocked to allow post game editing. You may only make post game edits for your home games for which you possess a Game Key. It is important to keep a close hold on the Post Game Edit License Key and only share the Key with those you trust to make edits. It should not be shared with other schools or posted publicly. This is a one-time request and will be valid for the entirety of the 2019-20 season.

NOTE: NCAA member schools are required to follow NCAA Statistics Policies and Guidelines when making statistical changes. The visiting team may make the request, the home team may make the change, and both teams must be properly informed of any changes made. Please consult the NCAA Statistics Policies and Guidelines manual here: http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/stats/ForSIDs/Policies.pdf
