GRR: Rankings
The game of greatest note this week had to have been #5 San Diego Mustangs over #3 Belmont Shore.
This is one of those games where we strongly suspected the outcome would be what it was (29-5 for the Mustangs) but had no evidence to back it up because of how the schedule falls in SoCal. We just had to wait.
Well we might as well post the new D1A rankings now.
The seeds are going to be decided soon so at least here's our shot.
So this is fun ...
Most of the D1A rankings remains unchanged. We have a new #25 and that's about it, but we spent a lot of time pondering two teams, both of which lost of the weekend: Mount St. Mary's and Army.
Massive changes hit the HS Club Top 50, and that's partly due to results and partly do to us making mistakes.
... Or at least overlooking stuff.
An interesting phenomenon showed itself this week.
Usually, when we're asked the question as to whether the HS Clubs or Single-School teams are stronger, our answer is this: at the top, they are fairly close, but the club top list is probably a bit longer, the medium-ranked school list is a bit longer, but then there's a sharp drop.
