CSV (season, row_count, generated_at_utc, source_endpoint) for
the shots release tag without downloading any season's full data.
Loads shot events parsed from ESPN women's college basketball
play-by-play feeds. One row per shot attempt (made or missed), with court

that reads raw JSONs from wehoop-wbb-raw and publishes parquet/rds
artifacts to the espn_womens_college_basketball_shots release tag.
