Relationships of Lower-body Power Measures to Sprint and Change of Direction Speed among NCAA Division II Women's Lacrosse Players: An Exploratory Study.

This study sought to determine if significant relationships exist between lower-body power measures to sprint and change of direction speed (CODS) in Division II collegiate women's lacrosse athletes. Archived data for 17 NCAA Division II female lacrosse athletes was provided to the investigators for analysis. Jumping performance was assessed using a countermovement jump (CMJ), squat jump (SJ), and standing broad jump (SBJ).
