Description
Does home court really matter? Do teams that shoot more threes win more? In this hands-on session, you'll use Excel to explore the women's NCAA basketball dataset from this year's Bucky's Data Viz Challenge. We'll dig into the data, uncover interesting questions and insights, and identify a story worth telling. You'll leave knowing the dataset and ready to build a competition entry over winter break. No experience needed.
