He attended the practices and analyzed thousands of data points produced by tracking bands worn by the players.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif;color: black\">His analysis of the data gave head coach Scott Calabrese another tool to assess his trainings and ensure the athletes got just what they needed.
