Actually, things don't change that much. That is one of the great things about using percentiles rather than averages. With averages a few high numbers can really skew the result but for populations like we have in this case, it doesn't have that much effect -- all that happens when you pull those top 4 monster teams out of the list is the shift the 95th, 90th, 75th and 50th percentile scores down 4 slots in the list.
I have done this and you can see that even without those top 4 teams, Newton is still in a class by themselves.
