Quiz Bowl Rankings – 2/25/17

Sorry for the delay in putting these out; it’s been a busy few months.

We have a new number one. We’ve expanded to 200 ranked teams. I’ve tried to denote teams that are making their all time debut in the rankings. I hope I didn’t leave anyone out. Please note that stats from February are not incorporated.

Hopefully a new set of rankings will be put out in a few weeks with stats from February and March.

  4. There we are! Cistercian “A”
    I knew we’d be somewhere in the chase,
    and after the Feb/March stats are out,
    who knows WHERE we’ll be!
    A happy Sunday, indeed!

  8. Mr. Morlan,

    I just have a few comments on your rankings, especially for Texas teams. I find these rankings important as PACE uses them to seed their national tournament.

    1. St. Johns dropped 7 places in rankings because you used ppb from tournaments where Andy Huff and I split (we are the two highest scorers on the team and that split therefore significantly lowered our ppb). If you look at the “whole package” (not just ppb), you will see that we are better than a 17th place ranking.

    2. I don’t know how Taylor dropped 34 places in rankings. You might have used ppb from when William was not playing, but I can tell you that they are much better than that (our games against them are often close, and they’ve beaten us a few times).

    • If their top player hadn’t played this year as of the time I put the rankings together, then of course I won’t be able to consider his impact on the team. I’m not going to use 2015-16 stats for the 2016-17 season. At some point, a team has to actually play quiz bowl.

  10. I didn’t see George Washington High School (Charleston, WV) on the list. Look up their record. They were also WV State AAA tournament champions (March 25). I don’t know if this tidbit is relative or not, but they were tournament champions of 2016 Give Thanks for Matt’s, but the results aren’t posted on NAQT.

    • I’ll be adding the stats for the Give Thanks tournament in the next rankings; thanks for providing the link. FWIW, I’d currently have GW just a touch outside the top 200, roughly 210th.
