Our Story
Built by fans, for fans
Campus Watch started with a simple frustration: there was no easy way to follow college athletes from your hometown — especially the ones playing at D2 and D3 schools that never make the national highlights.
Why we built this
Every town has athletes who went on to play college sports. Some made it to D1. Others are grinding it out at smaller schools, putting up big numbers in front of smaller crowds. All of them deserve to be followed.
We got tired of manually searching box scores and rosters across dozens of different websites just to see how someone from our town did over the weekend. So we built the tool we always wanted — one weekly email that covers your local athletes automatically, across basketball, football, baseball, lacrosse and soccer.
What makes it different
Most college sports coverage focuses on ranked programs and professional prospects. We focus on your area. The athlete who graduated from your high school three years ago and is putting up big numbers at a D3 school — we cover them. Their family and friends deserve to know how they're doing.
Most sports sites are generic — everyone sees the same thing. Campus Watch is built around your list of athletes.
- Create a custom list of players — add the exact athletes you want to follow, and nobody else.
- Find local athletes easily — discover players by county, ZIP code, or hometown.
- D2 and D3, not just D1 — most sites stop at the big programs — we cover all three NCAA divisions the same way.
- We bring the information to you — personalized weekly emails mean you don't have to go find what you're looking for.
- Context, not just numbers — short write-ups explain how your players actually played, so a 12-point night reads differently after a slump than after a career high.
- Clean, beautiful design — scores and stats without the clutter and annoying ads.
Our commitment
Campus Watch is free. We believe access to information about local athletes shouldn't cost anything. We're building something we'd want to use ourselves — no spam, no selling your data.
If you have an athlete you think we should be covering, or feedback on your report, we want to hear from you. Reach out at info@campuswatchweekly.com.
Who we are
We're a small group of former college athletes and software engineers based in Schenectady, New York. No marketing department, no investors, no parent company — we are the team. We write the code, we follow the players, and we use this ourselves every week.
Schenectady is exactly the kind of place Campus Watch was built for: a small city whose athletes scatter to colleges all over the country every fall, where keeping track of them used to mean knowing somebody who knew. We figured a lot of other towns had the same problem.
