Oh boy I have a very long rant about power points right now but I'll spare everyone and just say how stupid it is that we beat them and we have the same record and yet they get the 1 seed.
Based on yesterday's eye test, I don't blame you. I don't know much about power points, but I'm guessing that early season loss to Connetquot hurt you.
I'm amazed that they are at the bottom of the list. In case of ties, head to head should be the 1st criteria, unless it's a 3-way triangle situation.
Perhaps because it is based on the entire SEASON and not just one game Your Tigers LOST to Connetquot you know.
We played the whole season with comparable schedules and ended up with the same league record and we beat them.
I think the problem is they lost to you, while you lost to someone meaningfully worse. If it’s me deciding (and clearly they don’t care about my opinion either) I agree with you and let head to head decide it
I used to be able to do power points math but I can't anymore. The way I understood it was that it was based on the records of the teams you beat. By that metric, however, we also come out ahead. The teams we beat were a combined 104-78 in the league, while the teams Hills beat were 101-81.
However, if you go by total schedule, they do come out ahead.
12 of our 14 games were against the same teams (Hills went 12-0 in those games while Northport was 11-1 with a loss to Connetquot)
13th game for Hills was vs Riverhead (11-3) whereas Northport played Pat-Med (8-6), so that's a slight advantage for Hills.
14th game was vs each other, and Northport won.
So Hills went 13-1 against a schedule that was 114-82
Northport went 13-1 against a schedule that was 111-85
I think that is what did it.
