This is right out of MSHSAA's handbook.
12. District Seeding Procedures:
A. Points for a Win/Loss or Tie
i. 20 points for a win
ii. 10 points for a loss
iii. 15 points for an overtime loss
iv. Add up the total points and divide by the number of games played.
B. Points for Playing Up or Down a Class
i. 10 points CREDIT for each class you play up (i.e., a Class 1 team plays a Class 3 team: 20
points). Divided by the number of games you played.
ii. There are no points taken away for playing down.
C. Points for Strength of Schedule
i. Points from opponent‟s schedule by taking the sum of the win/loss record from each team you
have played times the points for a win and loss, 10,20 minus your contribution to the opponents
record, divided by the total number of games played minus the number of games you played.
Your records is 5W/4L)
Team A: 5W/4L = 5x20 + 4x10 = 140
Team B: 7W/2L = 7x20 + 2x10 = 160
Team C: 3W/6L = 3x20 + 6x10 = 120
Team D: 4W/5L = 4X20 + 5x10 = 130
Team E: 4W/5L = 4X20 + 5x10 = 130
Team F: 7W/2L = 7x20 + 2x10 = 160
Team G: 3W/6L = 3x20 + 6x10 = 120
Team H: 2W/7L = 2x20 + 7x10 = 110
Team I: 1W/8L = 1x20 + 8x10 = 100
Total games (8)
Total points (1170)
Minus the games you played (9)
Minus the points you contributed (5 x 10 + 4x20 = 130)
(81 - 9 = 72)
(1170 -- 130 = 1040)
(1040/72 = 14.44)
D. Plus/Minus (+/-) 13 Points for the Score of the game
i. You will calculate the point differential for each game played not to exceed +13 or -13. You will
add the total points together and divide by the total number of games played.
E. Calculating Your Points: Add all the points from the four categories above (a-d). Rank the points in
order (highest to lowest) and the corresponding seed (highest to lowest, i.e., 1-8).
Would this calculation also work for determining the top 10 in each class?

I USE THE SAME FORMULA TO DO MY TAXES.

Similar formulas are used by maxpreps and calpreps in their ranking system. Mosports uses a formula that also includes a panel of pollsters supposedly. From what ive read and been told. Could be all bs, as are most rankings.
