How Can I Become A Pro Or College Basketball Statistician??

I've been a College Statistician for about 5 years now. I started working as a football statistician for a local high school about 8 years ago. After meeting all the local media, one of them recommended that I check out the local university. The person you need to talk to is usually the head of media relations or sports relations. They can tell you if the school has a stat crew or any openings in that ball park. At UTEP we have a stat crew of 6-7 for mens basketball and football. We also have a smaller crew for Womens BBAll and one or two that cover other sports. Call your local university media relations office and ask for info. Good luck.



And to previous poster....at the NCAA level it pays...I'm paid per game, and given comp tickets (and they are pretty good tickets too). You get the BEST seat in the house (courtside or pressbox) and they feed you. Its fun...and if its your ball, a good way to meet a lot of people -- players, coaches, media...
