Chris Bates’ 211 Prep Expo Partners with STATDOG

Orlando, FL / Middletown, DE — September 8, 2026 — Chris Bates’ Top 211 Prep Expo today announced an official partnership with STATDOG, the premier lacrosse analytics platform, for its upcoming showcase on October 3–4, 2026. Designed specifically for middle school boys at a pivotal stage in their athletic and personal development, the Top 211 Prep Expo combines elite lacrosse instruction, dynamic leadership training, and invaluable exposure to top prep schools and coaches. Through this new partnership, every attendee will receive personalized game data to support their long-term growth as student-athletes.

While quantifiable performance feedback is essential for young lacrosse players striving to elevate their game, the heavy resource drain required to track and process stats during fast-paced showcases and camps has historically caused statistical tracking to be pushed aside. STATDOG solves this challenge by delivering – with just a click - comprehensive, individual stat sheets to every player following the weekend’s games, giving young athletes and prospective prep coaches clear insights into each player's unique strengths and developmental opportunities.

Beyond traditional lacrosse metrics like goals, assists, and ground balls, players will receive access to STATDOG’s signature advanced metric: Net Possession Contribution (NPC). NPC measures a player’s complete positive and negative impact on team possession. NPC moves beyond simple scoring to quantify the value of gaining possessions, causing turnovers, and minimizing saved shots. It reveals hidden value in non-scoring contributors and highlights who truly drives possessions, which in turn increases scoring probability.
