That looks more like team records than it does rankings.

District rankings are the number of games won in the district of total games played in district.

Region rankings are the number of games won of all games played.

The district rankings are cut and paste from the Coalfield's website. I put the data on an Excel spreadsheet and calculated the Region rankings.

Not sure how else to do it.

That's okay, just strange to see some listed where they are and be considered "ranked" there based on their overall record. I always thought there was more to rankings than just the W/L columns. Again, not meaning to step on any toes - thanks for the info, good reading.

No problem at all!

I agree it does look strange to see some of the teams ranked the way they are but overall records can be a bit confusing. For example, Gate City girls are a perfect 4-0 in district play but dropped a couple out-of-district/out-of-region games which lowers their overall winning percentage. Yet, they are probably considered a strong candidate to repeat as Region D champs.

But, it's about mid-season, and I thought it was kind of interesting to see how teams are stacking up in the districts and region.
