When they combined the awards for two different fields, they did not think it through. The award should have gone to the rookie team with the higher average.

It's the highest rookie seed award, not the highest rookie score. In previous years it was the exact same way with W/L (actually was worse in previous years since W/L could be more easily luck based).
