A team led by DMS assistant professor JooChul Lee had their work accepted to the 2026 American Soccer Insights Summit, a soccer analytics conference bringing together researchers and analysts from professional teams, media outlets, and universities—two years in a row. The presentation is titled “Optimal Defensive Movement Against Counterattacks.”

The team includes Isaac Araoz (Applied Discrete Mathematics), John Daniels (Biomedical Sciences), and Tzu-Ying Chen (Statistics). One of the undergraduate students will present the work to a mixed industry and academic audience.

Congratulations to JooChul and to the students on this excellent accomplishment!
