      from MIAA doc:
      "In the North and South sections, teams are seeded by winning percentage. To break any ties, teams will be seeded by a blind draw.
      In the Central and West sections, seeding will be done by the modified Walker system."

      Not sure why N&S stay with the old system but Western MA (football) was the guinea pig for this scoring system.

      http://www.recorder.com/Archives/201...king-GR-110315
      "The Walker System takes into account three factors: winning percentage, strength of schedule, and wins against tournament-eligible teams."


      Division I: 6 points

      Division II: 5 points

      Division III: 4 points

      Division IV: 3 points

      Division V: 2 points

      Division VI: 1 point

      So beating a div I opponent is worth more etc.
      Likewise beating a lower div opponent is a weaker weight.

      Then by league in the geographical area(in this case Western and Central) will have a weights assigned based on the strength of the teams in the league. The highest rated team from each league will automatically earn tournament qualification.

        More like a coin flip with Mboro at home, they have a slight advantage.

                      Interesting.
                      JM goes to SHS girls program and they are now on their way.
                      St Johns should have offered him more money...

                        Nashoba’s record is really not indicative of their team…… a lot better than the record shows…..They are going to have to rally in their second half of the season to qualify for districts. With strength of schedule now a factor in district seeding teams like Fitchburg and Tantasqua will qualify but be knocked down the seeding list due to too many D4 games….. Wachusett, Marlboro and Leominster actually have the toughest SoS in CMass. Shrewsbury should have saved some goals from Burncoat and Hudson for the GD game. Marlboro’s next three games should be interesting (STJ, Gonk and GD). Gonk does not look the powerhouse they started the season as. Injuries have hurt them and STJ. Not sure which GD team will show up against Marlboro. Marlboro could go 3-0 or 0-3. I think based on what we have seen so far more surprises will happen.

                          The annual bashing of the Stj coach is a bit late this year. Usually it occurs 2 or 3 games into the season.

                            Not a bash of good, old KS, but an endorsement of JM.

                              KS deserves every bash he gets - terrible tactical coach - is one of his many weaknesses- doesn't know how to make adjustments or change style of play based on opponent strengths against beatable teams in important games.
