Continue ReadingThe article today is a full-on data dump. I’ve compiled scores from almost every game between teams in Wisconsin and threw the results through a program that spits out their RPI rating. To be clear, RPI isn’t the best way to judge teams, and some groups, like Freedom (No. 30 in D3), aren’t where they should be ranking-wise.
The goal is to figure out the WIAA’s formula and eventually build this thing out to match it over the years. What they use is more complex because it involves conference performance in the postseason and strength of losses. I’m using the most basic form of RPI and plan on tinkering with it to try and give players, coaches, parents, and fans an idea of where they stand during the season.
With that said, and the understanding that this will be a process and an imperfect way of ranking teams and that this is a pure formula and only influenced by wins and losses and nothing else, I have D1-D5 rankings and rankings for every sectional in each division. Twitter will likely see the top 10 in each division. The format is goofy because of copy and pasting issues.
