Spring high school sports in New Jersey and much of the country in 2020 turned out to be a washout due to the COVID-19 crisis, but the virus couldn’t stop Sports Career Consulting’s fourth annual high school sports marketing competition.

The company, based in Portland, Oregon, ran its nationwide, eight-week SportsBiz Madness 2020 Case Study Tournament once again this spring, attracting teams from some 60 schools. In the end, the Pinelands Regional High School Advanced Sports Marketing Class won, beating New York’s Tappan Zee High School in the championship round.

It was the second win in three years for the Wildcats, who also topped the field in 2018.
