AB  - OBJECTIVES: This study sought to determine if there were significant trends in 
      lower extremity movement quality, as assessed by the Landing Error Scoring System 
      (LESS) scores and plane-specific LESS subscales, across in 12 recent cohorts of 
      incoming USMA cadets. DESIGN: prospective cohort study. SETTING: United States 
      Military Academy. PARTICIPANTS: 7,591. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Landing Error 
      Scoring System (LESS) scores, adjusted for sex and ACL injury history. RESULTS: 
      Statistically significant inverse trends were found between total LESS score and 
      year (p < 0.01) and sagittal plane subscale and year (p < 0.01). A statistically 
      significant direct trend was found for the frontal/transverse plane subscale and 
      year (p < 0.01). However, each of these trends had a small associated effect 
      size, and none were considered clinically meaningful. CONCLUSIONS: There were no 
      meaningful changes in lower extremity movement quality in incoming US Military 
      Academy cadets between 2005 and 2017.
