Target Technology Incubator Company Featured in Boston Globe

Double Blue Sports Analytics, a University of Maine Target Technology Incubator company, was featured in The Boston Globe article, “Technology gives goalies edge in advancements.” The startup’s hockey goaltending analytics app was mentioned in the article as being used with GoPro cameras and iPads to help goalies at Tufts. Dan Kerluke, a former associate head coach for the UMaine hockey team, co-founded the startup. “If [the goalie has] given up eight high-glove goals, you can click on the shot chart and see all the videos attached to those eight goals,” Kerluke said. “Instantly for a goalie coach, you can go through those high-glove goals and find out what the deficiency is, then work on something in practice to make that improvement. As a goalie coach, to aggregate 10 games’ worth of goals against can be 30 or 40 hours of work. This technology extracts that simply and gives it meaning.”
