ARIZONA BOYS SOCCER    Note: Please click here if you want to know how the ratings work.


Reminder to coaches-- all schedules and results info must be entered by your school athletic office directly on the aiaonline.org site. Please report your scores to your school athletic office who will then input the data for power ratings.  Please do not send us any information, as we would not be able to do anything with it.  We are drawing all info posted on this site directly from the AIA site.  Please contact Gloria Sowers at AIA if you are missing results or a result was posted incorrectly.  All other questions pertaining to power ratings should be directed to Steve Hogen or Art Wagner.

KEY


GROUP BY: Select whether you want schools to be grouped together by conference, region, etc., or rather to be shown as one list ("all").  Select "regions" to see region strengths.  IMPORTANT NOTE: Region ratings are provided solely because they can be interesting to see; they are NOT a factor in the ratings in any way...rather merely an average of the ratings of the teams in the region.  Teams are judged individually in order to create their rating; the region they are in is not a factor.

SORT BY: Select the order you want schools to be listed in. The default is by rating, but you can also choose schedule strength, record, conference record, etc.

SHOW: Select how many schools you want to see listed. Top 10, top 25, all schools, etc.

GAMES: Select whether or not you want the season lists of wins and losses to be shown beneath each team. "Good wins" (wins against a higher-rated opponent) are shown in blue; "bad losses" (losses to a lower-rated opponent) are shown in red.

MARGINS: Select whether to use margin of victory as a factor in the ratings.  Choose "projections" to see the ratings you would want to use to predict a margin of victory in an upcoming game.  (Example: A team rated an 80 would be expected to beat a team rated a 70 by 10 points.)  They are essentially the with-margins ratings, except that recent results are weighted more heavily and the "politically correct" moderately-low cutoff point at which margin of victory is no longer counted is eliminated.


Notes:
-Teams with less than 3 results are not rated.
-Ratings listed here are rounded to the nearest tenth of a point, but teams are placed in order according to their exact rating.
-"Schedule Strength" is simply an average of the ratings of the teams that team has played.
-Games against out-of-state opponents are a factor in the ratings as long as the out-of-state team has played at least one other game against state teams.  Failing that, there is no data to use as a basis for comparison.  Games that do not affect rating/schedule strength are shown in gray.
-In order to maintain the integrity of our ratings, post-game (administrative/ineligible player) forfeits are recognized in win-loss records only. They do not affect the ratings of the teams involved. The only other type of forfeit we recognize are those involving league games after the league season has started (for standings fairness/balance). WE DO NOT award forfeits for cancelled games. Please do not contact us to try to convince us to give your team a win in these situations. Thank you for your understanding.
