Description
During this independent study we as a group analyzed the humidity index and injury report correlations during the 2020 football season at Prescott High School in Prescott, Arkansas. We gathered reliable data for the first 2 games at the very beginning of the season and the last 2 games at the end. We analyzed all the numbers from the heat index and humidity with the number of injuries occurring in a game. At the end of the season we gathered all of our data and came together as a group to construct this independent study in hopes to help us prevent future injuries in upcoming seasons. This study is led by Dr. Terry DeWitt at Ouachita Baptist University.
