Show Notes
Keeper Notes creator and official NWSL historian Jen Cooper and Her Hoop Stats contributor Richard Cohen join Sarah to discuss how they each discovered their passion for record keeping, why it's so important for leagues like the WNBA and NWSL – and women’s sports as a whole – to have advanced statistics, building relationships in order to source information that fans need, and whether their stat brains allow them to watch games for fun. Plus, at what point does a record become untouchable?
