The best kind of defense is preventing any discs from getting anywhere near the goal. This is a tricky stat to track when the defense bounces from one robot to the next. But, if the defender is actively getting in the way, count the total shots that get through.
Oh man, I can't wait for Corsi and relative Corsi stats for FRC.
