Sports Statistics,
providing accountability and analytics for our athletes.

The “Grey Shirts”

Rain or shine, from the whistle to the buzzer, Sports Statisticians are there courtside and sideline recording the games while providing analysis for coaches and players. Sports Stats is a four-year program where students typically enter in their freshmen year to apprentice, record middle-school and JV games in their sophomore year, varsity games in their junior year, and provide analysis and mentorship in their senior.

Earning their uniform takes determination, skill, and commitment. Senior Statisticians are counted on to be experts in their sports and understand the basics of statistical analysis. This prepares the students for any field of study at university and the discipline to lead.
