Division Strengths

From the average OPR and average CCWM numbers, I put all 4 divisions on a chart and sorted in descending order.

Using average OPR data, the mean of each division is
Curie 22.7
Newton 22.1
Galileo 21.8
Archimedes 21.5

Looking at the graph, I have the following observations
1) Galileo has the biggest gap between high and low OPR teams.
2) Archimedes has the smallest gap between high and low OPR teams.
3) Curie has fewest low OPR teams while Galileo has the most.

Using average CCWM data, the mean of each division is
Newton 6.9
Archimedes 6.6
Curie 6.2
Galileo 6.0

Looking at the graph, I have the following observations
1) Galileo has the biggest gap between high and low CCWM teams.
2) Newton, Archimedes and Curie follows the same trend with Newton's teams having slightly higher CCWM.
3) Newton has the least number of teams with negative CCWM.

It is hard to draw conclusions but Newton and Curie have the slightly higher strengths over all the teams in their division. But if we are only looking at the upper half of the teams in each division, Galileo has the strongest teams.

Have fun looking at the numbers.
