This is really cool! I love geeking out over stats.

Any reason for 24th in specific, or are you just trying to point out the variation in the data? I think this might be a tiny bit misleading, because this number is likely to be higher at events with more registered teams.

This logic seemed flawed at first. I had to think about it a while, but It makes since that the average is less than half. I'm not sure which plays a bigger factor though, teams who play more, or a lower average due to the fact that teams who win a large percentage of their matches are a significant minority.

Although I think Auburn has a slightly deeper roster, there are some teams I'm going to watch out for when we are at Eastern. I like the fact that the overlap isn't too high, I enjoy getting to play more matches with more teams!

Now you have me wanting to try to predict district standings based on all previous year's performance in our region. I don't think I'll use OPR, because the model changes a fair amount each year. This might unintentionally weight some years higher than others... PM me, perhaps we can work something out together

Hope we get to play with you again this year at some point. See you at district champs! *Crosses Fingers*
