This data project visualizes NCAA Women's Volleyball data from 2012-2019. The data set was large, so I only selected rows that contained players in the Big Ten Conference. The x-axis shows average number of kills and the y-axis shows the average hitting percentage. The points on the graph are also color coded for each school.
