Answer:

C

Explanation:

The best answer for the question is C. Aubrey Kingsbury allowed her team’s opponents to score 22 goals during the season. This is because the number 22 is under the column GA, which stands for Goals Against Average or Average Goals Against1. This is a statistic that measures the mean of goals allowed per game by a goalkeeper1. The lower the GA, the better the goalkeeper’s performance. In contrast, SV stands for Saves, which is the number of shots on goal that a goalkeeper blocks2. The higher the SV, the better the goalkeeper’s performance. YC and RC stand for Yellow Cards and Red Cards, respectively, which are disciplinary actions taken by the referee for fouls or misconducts by a player. A yellow card is a warning, while a red card is an expulsion from the game. The lower the YC and RC, the better the player’s discipline.
