The NCAA has a lot of sports stats available at https://stats.ncaa.org. This package focuses on volleyball, though some of the functions can be used for other sports (e.g., get_teams()). The sport code for selecting women’s volleyball is “WVB” and men’s is “MVB”. Once you pick one of those, you can access season, match, and play-by-play stats for players and teams.
Finding teams
The NCAA uses a unique team ID for each women's and men's volleyball team and each season. So first you will need to get that ID with the find_team_id(). I'll use Nebraska to illustrate the functions in {ncaavolleyballr}.
However, before we find the team ID, we first have to know the exact team name that the NCAA uses to reference each team. Is Nebraska’s team name Nebraska, Neb., University of Nebraska-Lincoln, UNL, or something else? We can use find_team_name() to get a vector of teams that match a pattern.
find_team_name("Neb")
#> [1] "Neb. Wesleyan" "Neb.-Kearney" "Nebraska"Looks like it’s “Nebraska”. So now we can pass that to find_team_id() along with the year that we’re interested in. This function queries two data sets that ship with this package: wvb_teams and mvb_teams. These two data sets are simply the output of the get_teams() function being applied to sports “WVB” and “MVB” respectively. The get_teams() function can be applied to other sports to get the list of all of their team IDs. But since we’ve already done that for men’s and women’s volleyball, you won’t need to use get_teams().
OK, let’s find Nebraska’s team ID for 2024.
find_team_id("Nebraska", 2024)
#> [1] "585290"We’ll need this team ID to access all of the team’s statistics. You can either assign the output to an object or just add it to the top of your pipeline.
You can also pass vectors of team names and years to find team IDs for multiple teams and years.
find_team_id("Nebraska", 2020:2024)
#> [1] "504517" "523117" "538902" "558878" "585290"
find_team_id(c("Nebraska", "Wisconsin"), 2024)
#> [1] "585290" "585357"
find_team_id(c("Nebraska", "Wisconsin"), 2020:2024)
#> [1] "504517" "504318" "523117" "522809" "538902" "538704" "558878" "559025"
#> [9] "585290" "585357"Note these are processed per year, so the last example are the teams ID’s for Nebraska and Wisconsin in 2020 then 2021, etc.
Season stats
Now that we have the team ID, we can use it to access season summary statistics for a particular team and year (e.g., Nebraska 2024).
Team season information
Before we get to stats, we can extract information about a team’s season with team_season_info(), The NCAA’s main page for a team and year includes a tab called “Schedule/Results”. The team_season_stats() function extracts information about the team’s venue, coach, and records, as well as the table of the schedule and results.

Player match stats
Similarly, you can get match stats for each player in a single match. But to do this, you must know the NCAA’s contest ID for the particular match or matches that you’re interested in. Use the find_team_contests() function to return a data frame of all of the matches for a particular team and season, along with the contest IDs.

This returns a list with two elements—one for each team. If we just want to return a single team’s match stats, we can specify this with the team argument. Also, by default, the team stats are included in the output, but we can remove these with team_stats = FALSE.

Play-by-play data
Play-by-play data for matches are also available on the NCAA’s website, if you know the contest ID. The match_pbp() function extracts relevant events within a match.

Aggregating data
Though the season, match, and play-by-play data are useful at the individual level, they can be more useful when aggregated. The group_stats() function aggregates season, match, and play-by-play data over multiple teams and/or years by applying the player_season_stats(), player_match_stats(), or match_pbp() across teams and years.
group_stats(teams = c("Nebraska", "Wisconsin"), year = 2023:2024, level = "season")
