Crunching the Numbers

Killian vs. Lucho in SF 4-Wall/Killian vs. Danos in Tucson 3-Wall

WPH Press

Starting in 2020, the WPH has crunched tens of thousands of shots, tracking the aces, kill shots, return of serve kills, first-strike kills, errors, 6+ shot rallies won, and hinders for dozens of classic matches in handball’s recent and distant past. The thousands of numbers we’ve crunched have provided handball fans and players with the blueprint to win matches.

On this edition of Crunching the Numbers, we’ll compare the stats from game one of the semifinals between Killian Carroll and Lucho Cordova at the 2019 San Francisco Race 4 Eight (4-Wall) and Killian Carroll vs. Danos Cordova from game one from the finals of the 2021 WPH Icebreaker 11 (3-Wall).
