¹The Most Weeks Ranked stat is based on the # of rankings published. It is not based on calendar weeks. It is not consecutive weeks. The number of rankings published each season varied. There are typically 10 to 12 rankings published each season.
²The Highest All-Time Point Totals stat is not meant to infer a hierarchy of best runners. The point system evolves and cannot be compared across seasons. 2006 had inflated point totals relative to subsequent seasons due scoring changes after the first full season. The pandemic also shook things up with just a few races run in spring 2021. The ranking shown in this list is the rank at the time of the peak point total and not necessarily the peak ranking of that runner.
³The All-Time Highest Ranked Athlete stat displays the highest peak ranking by the top athletes for this school. The 'final season ranking' only includes rankings from the final ranking published each season. The final ranking of each season incorporates the most data and emphasizes championship races. EOS = End of Season. In the 'final season ranking' list, an athlete may be listed once per season.
⁴The All-Time Highest Ranked Freshmen stat lists the peak ranking for athletes in grade 9. The 'final season ranking' only includes rankings from the final ranking published each season. The final ranking of each season incorporates the most data and emphasizes championship races. EOS = End of Season.
⁵The Highest Debut Ranking stat shows the highest rankings at which individual athletes first appeared in the rankings. The original 2006 preseason rankings are excluded.
⁶The Greatest Individual Ranking Improvement in a Week identifies and ranks the individuals with the greatest ranking improvement in a single week. The athlete must be ranked both weeks to be considered. It excludes newly ranked runners. It excludes the ranking transition from final season rankings to the next preseason rankings.
⁷Progress is not linear for everyone. The Most Ranking Entries and Re-Entries stat shows athletes that had setbacks and kept working their way back onto the ranking at least two times after their initial debut. It is very common for athletes to fall off the rankings and get re-added later.
⁸The Most Ranked Athletes Per School stat adds the total number of unique athletes per school to ever achieve a #1 ranking, a top 10 ranking, or to ever appear on the ranking.
⁹The Most Athlete-Weeks Per School stat adds the total number of weeks that all individual athletes for each school were ranked #1, top 10, or ever ranked. For example, if athlete 'X' was ranked for 30 weeks in their high school career, and athlete 'Y' from the same school was ranked for 15 weeks in their high school career, that school would have accumulated 45 all-time athlete-weeks.
¹⁰The Most Athletes Ranked From One Team in a Week identifies and ranks the teams that have had the most runners ranked simultaneously. A team may be listed once for each year. The earliest week in the season where the team achieved the most runners for the season is shown.
