Capstone Pitch

For my Capstone Project I would like to do something that deals with athletics since it has basically controlled my life for the last fifteen years. In sports, no matter which sport it is, there are a lot of different superstitions and habits that athletes have and do for their different performances. The ones I want to look at specifically are the very habitual acts such as shooting a free throw in basketball, taking a penalty kick in soccer, or kicking a field goal in football. Each athlete has their own special way to do each of these acts and what I want to look at is if those actually make a difference in the success of the act. What I want to do is get a couple players from each DSU sports team to help me out and we will see if they have better percentages doing their habitual things versus not doing them.
