Trivia question - most blocks in high school

Jennifer Azzi.

Did you see that the answer has been revealed?

One problem with many H.S. stats is that the ones other than scoring are often woefully inaccurate. I have seen many H.S. games where the "official" assists, rebounds, turnovers, and blocks were off by HUGE amounts. Even many college games stats are not completely accurate when it comes to these items - especially blocks and assists.

H.S. stats can be wrong for at least four reasons: (1) stat person doesn't know the scoring rules; (2) stat person often loses focus; (3) too many things happen in too short a time horizon; and (4) stat person deliberately cheats. I've seen all four.

It's always interesting to see stats listed in two different newspapers - presumably using stats from different schools. Other than scoring, it sometimes looks like a completely different game.

Many high schools do not keep records for blocks at all.
