First post on here so hello!
Recently I made a website for Liberty League football statistics and thought that this would be a good place to share it. The website has data for LL players between the years 2013 and 2025 and includes stats from all 3 phases of the game. The website allows users to filter by certain statistics and create their own statistics (rushing yards per game, completion percentage, etc). Additional features include chart creation, player career statistics, and data exporting.
All of the code that created the website is available here: https://github.com/RyanIce100/LibertyLeagueFootballDataSite

Story:
Around a month ago I found that Logan Hansen had compiled player statistics for every D3 football team between the years 2013 and 2018. When playing around with the data in R, I realized that I could filter it to only display Liberty League teams. This allowed me to create interesting charts and tables that showed how good players were relative to each other.
My next idea was to gather the data from 2019-2025 to create a (somewhat) complete dataset. The most "exciting" part was creating the code that scrapes the season statistics and roster page from the website. Once that was completed, I went through every season for every team until the dataset was complete. Any errors were fixed manually (but I'm sure there are some that slipped through the cracks).
The website came next as I realized that there wasn't an existing source for all time Liberty League football statistics. I am not a very good coder so most of the website was made through Claude and Gemini (which probably creates a lot of bugs). Hopefully this website will be interesting to play with and doesn't mess up too much!
