Best in your State/Region
 

Summer CD is boring, and these threads are less boring.

Who are the top 5 teams in your state/region:

• this year by OPR?
• based on this year's results at various levels?
• this year overall?
• during the past 5 years by OPR?
• during the past 5 years by results at various levels?
• during the past 5 years overall?
• in terms of culture(both culture awards and your experience with the teams)?

I'll comment in a little bit with some data on NY, unless someone else wants to do it.

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

Sweet thread that is indeed less boring than others!

Top 5 OPR in MN:
1) 5172, 73.85 at the Newton Division
2) 2052, 57.41 at the 10,000 Lakes Regional
3) 3130, 55.11 at the North Star Regional
4) 5434, 54.41 at the 10,000 Lakes Regional
5) 4009, 52.57 at the MN State Championship

I'll post the rest of the top 5's later today.

2-5-4! 2-5-4! 2-5-4! 2-5-4!

Seriously though, for all my fanboying 1678 is starting to give them a run for their money in recent years. They have been on Einstein more often in the last 4 years, anyway. 971 has good years and bad years, but generally remain slightly behind 1678.

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

I would say 3419. Their robot for the past two years has been solid.

Plus, they pioneered the camera pole. Who could complain? :P

Also, 1796 always makes an incredible showing. Their robot this year was killer.

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

973, 3476, and 330 are all definitely in the mix too for CA.

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

I'd post some for our little happy tribe of Kansas teams, but thankfully, someone on 1108 went ahead and did it for me. I can now officially say that I'm #4 in the state (by RP), which is a great marketing stat.

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

In Northern California: 1678, 254, and 971. All are absolutely fantastic teams with 4 Championships, multiple division wins and dozens of regional victories between them. They are all incredibly helpful and nice, and do whatever they can to help other teams.

For culture and other awards in NorCal 1868 is pretty hard to beat, having won Chairman's 5 times in their existence and many other awards.

Also, if anyone is interested I wrote a post about 1678's rise from an OK team to absolute domination. Here's the link: https://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/s...89&postcount=9

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

Here's some OPR stats for California. It's crazy just how dominant 254 has been (and makes me wonder: is this normal in other regions too?)


2016, max OPR:
254 - 78.9 at SVR
971 - 77.1 at Sac
1678 - 70.5 on Hopper
3309 - 62.9 at Orange County
330 - 60.0 at Ventura

2016, avg OPR:
971 - 72.0
254 - 69.4
1678 - 61.7
330 - 57.3
973 - 52.2

Avg rank by max OPR, past 5 years:
254 - 1.4 (2, 2, 1, 1, 1)
1717 - 5.3 (1, 3, 8, 9, :()
971 - 5.4 (7, 10, 6, 2, 2)
1678 - 6.8 (9, 16, 3, 3, 3)
973 - 7.6 (3, 5, 13, 11, 6)

Avg rank by avg OPR, past 5 years:
254 - 1.6 (2, 2, 1, 1, 2)
971 - 5 (7, 8, 5, 4, 1)
1678 - 5 (6, 11, 3, 2, 3)
1717 - 6.25 (1, 3, 7, 14, :()
1538 - 7 (12, 1, 9, 6, 7)

Misc notes:
- Of those 6 teams, 4 are previous world champions. 1538 and 1717 have made division finals at least once each. 254 and 1538 are also HOF teams
- Of the past 5 years, only this year (2016) had a different teams holding the top max OPR and top average OPR record
- Of the past 5 years, the top 3 teams for both max and avg OPR appear in the top 10 teams across all 5 years with one exception: 2485 ranked 2nd in both categories in 2014 but ranked 12th in max / 21st in avg
- I used the OPR data from 2834's database, which includes OPRs from divisions but not Einstein
- I excluded 2 2016 rookie teams from the top 10 avg OPR rankings (5924 at 9th, and 5818 at 11th) since I figured there wouldn't be much of a trend to see, pushing 3309 (at 12th) in
- There are a lot of teams with black as their team color, so my color coordination for the plots got a bit messed up (sorry 1671 and 3309)

Plots of the top 10 teams by average max/avg OPR rank over the past 5 years:



We're honored by the mention, but 604 definitely takes the top spot for Chairman's (excluding HOF teams). I don't have award data easily accessible but I'd guess 1671, 1323, and 3256 would be strong norcal contenders, as would 2485 and 3476 for socal.

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

I reject your statistics and substitute my own!

Seriously, though, I was playing around with using the t-distribution* to predict matches and/or order sort teams so as to make for faster picklisting so it's far more convenient for me to talk about MAR using T-scores to back me up.

T-scores from MAR Champs based off of Dawgma's scouting data gives me,

For teleop high goals:
1) 341, t = 3.6810
2) 225, t = 2.9516
3) 3314, t = 2.9507
4) 869, t = 2.7825
5) 5895, t = 2.3754

For teleop low goals:
1) 25, t = 7.6629 (they destroyed)
2) 1257, t = 4.6518
3) 708, t = 4.5852
4) 5113, t = 4.2006
5) 1923, t = 3.5787

For overall boulder volume:
1) 25, t = 6.3270
2) 708, t = 3.2628
3) 5895, t = 3.2018
4) 3314, t = 2.8022
5) 2590, t = 2.7175

Of course, I'm still playing around and this might change. Still working on stuff.

* T, not Z, because n !>=30, so CLT for means won't apply.

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

This is a really good list I think, good enough that I don't think it's necessary to post my own since it matches up 90%+. Your team's been doing an amazing job the past few seasons, and your work has honestly blown me away -- keep up the good work!

Re: Best in your State/Region
 

Nitpicking but 229 should be 5th on the championship picks list since we were 8th overall pick on Newton.

Not saying we should've been, but we were.
