NCAA Taps STATS SportVU for Women s Final Four in Indianapolis

01/04/2016

STATS LLC will cover the 2016 NCAA Women's Final Four using STATS SportVU player tracking technology. Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis will be the host for the Women's Final Four, with the national semifinals being played on April 3 and the national championship game on April 5.

STATS SportVU technology will be used to collect real-time tracking data of the games for use by the NCAA and its media partners. The games will be televised live on ESPN, with STATS SportVU data being used to create graphics for broadcast and in-stadium fan engagement. Key stats from the games will be included in post-game notes which will be sent to the media to inform coverage with in-depth statistical information.

With today's technology, we are always looking for additional ways to tell the story as our fans are hungry for new and innovative ways to consume the sport, says Anucha Browne, NCAA VP, women's basketball championships. Working with STATS SportVU will create an enhanced fan engagement experience and provide more in-game statistics than ever before.

STATS SportVU utilizes a six-camera system installed in arenas to track the real-time positions of players and the ball. This information is used to generate advanced metrics based on speed, distance, player separation and ball possession.

Our player tracking technology has changed the way player performance data is analyzed in basketball at the collegiate and professional levels, says Greg Kirkorsky, EVP of Sales and Marketing for STATS. Several college teams already use STATS SportVU to simplify their data collection process and improve their performance on the court. The NCAA Women's Final Four is a great opportunity to showcase the same STATS SportVU technology that is used by the NBA teams to enhance their performance and the STATS SportVU data that is also available to broadcasters.

STATS SportVU is the official tracking technology of the NBA and is used by franchises to achieve competitive advantage through advanced performance insights.
