The rankings were complied using a Power 5 formula based on the Universal Tennis Rating system. The rankings take the UTR of each teams top 5 players and combine them to form their final ranking. All research and compiling of statistics were done by the National High School Tennis Association. This set of rankings is NOT based on final results during the season but on player ratings.
It is possible that in our research we may have missed a deserving team. If you have a team that you feel should have made this list please email the information to hstennischampionships@gmail.com. Thanks!
Will you redo this list when the states that play boys tennis in the Spring finish their state tournaments? Hard to believe Indiana has that many top-rated teams, and that comes from someone who coaches in the state and watched Carmel play.
ReplyDeleteWe will post a additional list in the spring of the top 25 teams and All-Americans from states that play tennis in the spring. We will then post our final 2015-16 Top 75 Rankings and All-American selections.
DeleteHow did Carmel end up higher than North Central? North Central beat Carmel in the quarterfinal of the state tournament...curious
ReplyDeleteI now see this is based on a formula, by player. Just goes to show - the best "talent" does not always win.
DeleteWe decided to use this formula because it was the only objective way to compare all teams from throughout the country since very few have any common opponents. It is very interesting to see where teams finish in their state compared to these rankings because sometimes there is a direct correlation in finish and sometimes the "most talented" team does not always win. Thanks for you interest in our rankings!
