Advanced Statistics Package for Vanier Cup 2017 by Gameplan Data Inc.

Advanced Stats Package ‐ Vanier Cup 2017

This package was put together and provided to U Sports, as well as the participating schools, to assist the media in their coverage of Vanier Cup 2017.

This advanced statistics package was compiled by Gameplan Data after reviewing the game film and tracking stats from the three playoff games for both Laval and Western. Because we have made corrections to statistics while reviewing the film, these stats (especially for defense) may not match up to the official statistics handed out by each school or U Sports.

The stats in this package include only the three playoff games for each school.

Games reviewed for this package: Nov. 4, 2017 ‐ Sherbrooke at Laval; Guelph at Western Nov. 11, 2017 ‐ Montreal at Laval; Laurier at Western Nov. 18, 2017 ‐ Laval at Calgary; Western at Acadia
