Statistically Generated County Rankings

**FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY**

Mocorunning is again attempting to do the absurd: predict times and places for the top ~60 public school athletes in the upcoming county championship. These rankings and times are based on the statistical individual rankings that have been published on this site for three years.

Read about this ranking system before questioning it. No opinion or thought goes into this. It is simply a fun and easy way to track and objectively rank a large number of athletes. The actual county championship results may not look anything like this, but the system tends to be reasonably accurate when it comes to statistical models predicting human performance.

Teams with five or more ranked runners are scored at the bottom. Again, this is based on stats, not opinions.

If they run with heart in every race, then the system has that covered!

The system didn't like how Wayne was running in September but most people including me would agree he should be higher based on October. Also check the projected times. He is about 7 seconds ahead of the next guy, but also 7 seconds behind the guy five places in front of him. It's a really narrow margin between those guys ranked 7 - 13.
