This is the button-by-button reference for scoring lacrosse in StatsCastr. Men's and women's games share most buttons, and the game's ruleset adds the ones that differ: faceoffs and timed penalties for men's, draw controls and cards for women's. For an overview of what StatsCastr does for lacrosse, see the lacrosse page.
Short version
Pick Men's Field Lacrosse or Women's Field Lacrosse before you create the game. Then tap the team, the stat, and the player (or Skip). Log assists with Assist, use Man-up Goal or Man-down Goal in place of Goal in men's games, and tap + at the end of each quarter.
Men's or women's: set it before the game
| Ruleset | Quarters | Extra buttons |
|---|---|---|
| Men's Field Lacrosse | 4 × 12:00 | Faceoffs, penalties, man-up and man-down |
| Women's Field Lacrosse | 4 × 15:00 | Draw controls, fouls and cards |
New games copy the league's ruleset. To use the other one for a single game, choose it in Lacrosse ruleset on the new game form. The ruleset can't be changed after the game is created, so check it before you tap Create game. See Rulesets for each sport, and changing one for a single game.
Rosters use one position list for both: G, D, LSM, M, A and FO. For a women's team, use G for goalkeepers and D, M and A for everyone else. Positions only group the roster; they don't limit any stat.
Quarters and the clock
- Quarters show as Q1 to Q4. + moves to the next quarter, − goes back.
- + greys out at Q4. There's no overtime period on the Live page yet, so log overtime plays in Q4.
- The clock box resets to 12:00 (men's) or 15:00 (women's) each quarter. It doesn't run by itself: type the time, like 04:32, and it saves when you leave the box. A time longer than the quarter isn't saved: you'll see Check the clock, and the box goes back to its last saved time.
See Change the period and set the clock.
Buttons in every game
Every button except Penalty and Score Adjust opens Select player (optional): tap the player, or Skip for a team stat. Scoring buttons show +1 pts.
| Button | What it records |
|---|---|
| Goal | A goal and a point for the scorer |
| Assist | An assist and a point |
| Shot | A shot off target or blocked |
| Shot on Goal | A shot and a shot on goal |
| Save | A save, for the goalie's team |
| Ground Ball | A ground ball |
| Turnover | A turnover, for the team that lost the ball |
| Caused TO | A caused turnover, for the defender who forced it |
| Score Adjust | Opens Score adjustment: +1 goal or -1 goal |
Men's buttons
| Button | What it records |
|---|---|
| Faceoff Win / Faceoff Loss | Faceoffs and faceoff percentage |
| Penalty | Opens Penalty minutes: 1 minutes, 2 minutes, 3 minutes or 5 minutes. No player step. |
| Man-up Goal | A goal scored with the extra man. Counts as the goal, so don't log Goal too. |
| Man-down Goal | A goal scored a man down. Also counts as the goal. |
| Man-up / Man-down | Marks the situation in the play log. It doesn't add to any total in the box score. |
A penalty counts for the team only when you log it. To give it to a player, tap Edit on the penalty in the play log and pick the Player.
Women's buttons
| Button | What it records |
|---|---|
| Draw Control | A draw control |
| Foul | A foul |
| Green Card, Yellow Card, Red Card | A card of that color |
Goals, assists and saves
- The goal panel asks only for the scorer. Log the assist with Assist while the scoring team is selected. Editing a goal shows an Assist field too, but an assist entered there doesn't add to the totals yet, so use the button.
- Save percentage is saves divided by saves plus goals against. Log the shooter's Shot on Goal and the goalie's Save for each stop, so both show.
What the box score shows
- Team stats: Score, Goals, Shots / SOG, Assists, then Man-up / Man-down goals, Faceoffs and Penalties / min (men's) or Draw controls, Fouls and Cards (G/Y/R) (women's), then Ground balls, Turnovers / Caused and Saves / SV%.
- Player stats: Scoring (G, A, PTS, MUG, MDG), Field Play (SH, SOG, GB, TO, CT), Faceoffs & Penalties (FOW, FOL, FO%, PEN, PIM) or Draws & Discipline (DC, FL, GC, YC, RC), and Goalkeeping (SV).
- Standings: W, L, T, PCT, GF and GA and STK.
- Season leaders: Points / Game, Goals / Game, Assists / Game, Shots on Goal / Game, Saves / Game, Ground Balls / Game, Caused Turnovers / Game, Faceoff Wins / Game and Draw Controls / Game. The faceoff card stays empty in a women's season, and the draw card in a men's season.
Undo takes back the last play, and Edit on a play-log row changes it. When you change a play's event, pick one from your game's own ruleset: a women's button in a men's game won't save. See Edit or delete any play, during or after the game and Log stats live.
Checklist
- Ruleset checked on the new game form before Create game
- Assists logged with the Assist button
- Man-up and man-down goals logged with their own buttons, not Goal as well
- Penalties edited to add the player, if you track PIM
- + tapped at the end of each quarter
