Louder for all to hear!
A friendly reminder to high school football statisticians: Under NFHS guidelines, a play ending in a tackle should result in one solo tackle or two assisted tackles. Multiple defenders should not be credited with solo tackles on the same play, nor should three, four, five or more defenders routinely receive assisted tackles on a single play.View quoted post on X
Solo tackles + (assisted tackles ÷ 2) should roughly align with the number of plays ending in potential tackles. (rushing attempts, receptions, kick returns, punt returns).
Accurate and consistent stat keeping ensures players receive proper recognition.
