I was curious to see how the current individual rankings compared to the top 10 coaches poll. I used a simple point system to compile some data for each team with ranked athletes. Below are the results for the top 10 teams based on individual rankings. This type of point system is very basic, it does not include bonus points or points generated by non-ranked wrestlers. I thought it would be cool to share and spark some good wrestling conversation.
I think that the coaches poll does a great job ranking teams in a dual meet setting, and this point system ranks the teams more in line with Open Results. Enjoy and share your thoughts!
Point System:
Ranked 1 = 6pts
Ranked 2 = 5pts
Ranked 3 = 4pts
Ranked 4 = 3pts
Ranked 5 = 2pts
Ranked 6 = 1pt
Results:
Team Total Pts Poll Rank
1. Danbury 1 2 3 6 6 2 3 6 29 1

This is definitely cool. One error is Xavier and Trumbull are tied. You gave Matt Ryan a 2 instead of a 3. Another thing that would mix it up is maybe partial points for HM. One more thing is every weight class to be fair should have top 6. i saw atleast 1 that stopped at 4 or 5.
Updated. Nice catch
Yea I was thiking about adding HM as a half point and I agree with you on the partial rankings, I could only use the data that was available to me via the site.
👍🏻
Rankings were updated . Jack Ryan moved up. I’ll look at Danbury,Xavier,and Warde also just happened to notice that one.
So with new rankings out it’s with .5 for hm
1-Danbury =28.5
2-Trumbull=19
3-Warde=18
4-Xavier=16
5-new canaan =15
6-Bristol Eastern=13.5
7-Simsbury=10
7-Middletown=10
8-Wethersfield is now at a 6 hmmmmmm
thats all I did so far Southington took a big hit with the loss of Calo. They are now at a 3! That team lost one of the best wrestlers they’ve ever had. So unfortunate for Pauly when he would have easily breezed through opens and most likely New England’s. Well only thing to do is get better and move your sights on to crushing it in college!
Immaculate no longer has a team. They have had a co-op with Barlow in past years but are now gone
So Licastri is a point scorer for Barlow this year?
@Run.the.Pipes prob not, I would imagine he’s wrestling under Barlow but non affiliated. Similar to Defonce and Ciquera are with Danbury.
