SCORE REPORTING & Schedule Change Format
In order to facilitate reporting game stats via email, please follow these directions:
    In the Subject, put the name of your team and lacrosse. If there is nothing in the subject or the subject says something I do not recognize or the sender is a name I do not recognize, I will delete it without opening it in order to keep from brining a virus into my computer.
    Do not "attach" files. Finding and saving attached files takes more time.
    Stats must be reported as each game is played. I will accept late reports but not compilations.
    It is OK to report a couple games in one email.
    Please note that I will assume that your players play in every game unless you tell me. If "John Johnson" is one of your leading scorers and misses a game for any reason, please tell me so I may adjust the per game stats.
    Front Page teams are ones who have reported their stats properly and the quickest. Stats that come in days or a week later are no longer "news" and will be recorded only on the Master Schedule page and on the team's individual page.
    Also, reporting your team stats in an accurate and timely fashion may help to sell your player or players to college coaches and the rest of the membership when it come time to vote for All League teams.
    Send your report to wvulax@verizon.net
Schedule Changes
Once your master schedule has been sent, only make individual changes:
"Change May 17 My School vs Some School from 2 pm to 5:30 pm" or
"Change May 17 My School vs. Some School to 7:30 pm at Other School"
When a complete "revised schedule" is sent, it takes a lot of time to go game by game to see what has changed. Those changes get put on the "back burner" until I have the time and enough coffee to check everything. So please only send individual game changes.

DEFINITIONS (from the NCAA men's rule book )
Save: A save is recorded any time a ball is stopped or deflected by the goalkeeper's body or crosse in such a manner that had the ball not been stopped or deflected, it would have entered the goal.

Assist: Any one direct pass by a player to a teammate who then scores a goal without having to dodge or evade an opponent other than the goalkeeper who is in the crease is recorded as an assist. There can only be one assist on any goal scored.

For more stat keeping info, go to the NCAA men's rule book, which has a statistician's guide as an appendix.
