Week Four Leading Scorer Tally

This is the last week I'll be posting this list in a post form.  I'm going to create a page for each boys and girls and update it when I have time.  At some point it will include all the games and maybe then I'll write something out about it in its totality.  For now, it's taking too much time and I don't think it's really giving that much useful information.  For the most part, the important items to take away from the exercise are that 1) with the exception of a dozen or so quality scorers on less than competitive teams the team that scores the most points usually has the higher single scorer as well and thus, wins the game,  2) there are probably a few less of these scorers in girls high school basketball than in boys which is why the girls have less leading scorers on the losing team and, 3) there isn't any predictive value about the results since we don't know until after the game who had the high scorer.  Instead of using the game results, you could look at which team has the scorer with the highest average before the game, and I may look at that in the off-season but I need to refine my data collection efforts to make it sustainable as an in season analysis.

Regardless, I wanted to highlight individual performance a bit on this blog and this is one way to do it so keep checking back on the pages once they are up.  I will be updating them periodically.
