| Title of Talk | Goals in Context: an Analysis of Iowa Conference Women's Goal Scorers |
| Abstract | In soccer, a simple tabulation of goals scored does not tell the story of the value of the goals a player has scored. This presentation will offer the results of an analysis of goal-scoring in women's Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (IIAC) soccer. The analysis attempts to quantify the context and value of goals scored, to determine a method to produce a more value-oriented goal-scoring leaderboard. Full disclosure: the presenter is an assistant coach for one of the teams in the IIAC. |
