As a long time sports fan as well as along time statistics fan, I have developed a keen interest in sport analytics. Originally coined "moneyball" in Major League Baseball (Wikipedia entry on the original Moneyball), managers in many of North America's profesional sports leagues have turned to similar advanced statistical analysis to try and get the most value out of players and create efficient teams. One sport which has, in my opinion, not received a sufficient treatment of advanced statistics is box lacrosse (hereafter: Lacrosse).
