,*Wald ?2 statistics from negative binomial model: game injury rates differed among divisions (P < .01) and within season (P < .01). Practice injury rates differed among divisions (P < .01) and within season (P < .01). Postseason sample sizes are much smaller (and have a higher variability) than preseason and in season sample sizes because only a small percentage of schools participated in the postseason tournaments in any sport and not all of those were a part of the  Injury Surveillance System sample. Numbers do not always sum to totals because of missing division or season information. Spring football data are not included here.,,,,,,,,,,,
