Match Summary in all three analysis Programs.
         Each skill has a percentage computed which is displayed in its column followed by a colon and a number indicating the number of attempts.  The number on the right side of the column is the player's ranking on the team for that skill.  Please note the the formulas used in these percentages are different from those used for the traditional box scores using the AVCA formula of kills minus errors divided by attempts.  The SPORTISTICS formula gives a value to each play through the rating system, then divided by the number of attempts and dividing that by the top rating of the scale being used.  This results in a percentage that ranges from 0 to 100 instead of -100 to +100 as the formula used by the AVCA stat manual.  Therefore, the SPORTISTICS percentages will be higher than what most would expect, but there are no negative percentages and it is more differentiating between attackers rated with the AVCA formula.  In the NCAA and NAIA Box Score printouts, the proper AVCA formula is used.
