Abstract:

Introduction:

Design and Procedures:

Descriptive Statistics:

Methodology:

Results: Atlantic Sun Conference had the best Assist to Turnover Ratio

Summit League had the best overall field goal percentage

Florida Gulf Coast University had the highest field goal percentage and third most assist

Conclusions:The conclusion drawn from the information is that the Atlantic Sun Conference is the most difficult conference to play in based off the assist to turnover ratio as well as the high volume of shooting that takes place in the conference equating to a high overall field goal percentage. The teams are making the shots that they need to and are passing the ball well enough to score off of it and not allow the opponent to take the ball away from them. The teams included in the Atlantic Sun are FGCU, Jacksonville, Kennesaw State, Lipscomb, NJIT, North Florida, USC Upstate, and Stetson.

Discussion: The results from the data analysis was able to show us that the better teams will finish the season with a higher field goal percentage, more assist, and less turnovers compared to the other teams. The conferences as a whole will be tougher if all the teams would have such good field goal percentages and a high assist to turnover ratio. While finding the data for each team and conference used we were able to see the differences in the competition that the teams would face.
