TULSA, Okla. — The University of Tulsa men's basketball program announced its partnership with Sparta Science, a Silicon Valley company that applies data and technology to the pursuit of human resilience.
The Sparta software platform allows coaches and trainers to measure and reduce player injury risk and improve student-athlete health and performance. Sparta monitors athlete readiness and health with the Sparta Scan, a 60 second test that collects data from a series of movements on a force plate, compares it to database of more than 400,000 standardized force trials and more than 6,000 anonymized injuries to help Tulsa predict injury risk with proven accuracy.
