NCAA® Vault Publishing Guide

The NCAA Vault contains hundreds of full length classic NCAA Tournament games and moments that are all digitized and tagged with rich play-by-play data. This enables search and syndication at the level of teams, players, highlights and individual moments.

Link/Syndication Tools:

• A Publishing Guide which includes the moment database for use by blogs, publishers and third party sites can be downloaded here. The guide features thousands of moments with direct URLs searchable and sortable by team, year, player, round, and highlight type.
• The NCAA Vault also enables users to create their own direct link for any moment they wish by selecting “Get Link” at the desired play. The Vault will generate a shortened bit.ly URL for that moment.
• Sites can also select any moment of any game by constructing their own URL with the desired cue point in the video.

The links can be used for a range of publishing purposes:

• Blue link from articles that reference individual players or games
• Power team or score/stats sites
• Link from blogs or other basketball content

The below links feature examples of writers and bloggers using NCAA Vault links within their articles:
