Bear Tracks AA/A In Season - Edition 2

BEAR TRACKS AA/A In Season Edition 2 – December 20th


****MANY NEW UPDATES IN THE RANKED SECTION. I am letting this fly now whereas this weekend will shake things up again.
PLEASE KEEP THE FEEDBACK COMING. Give your son or daughter the attention they deserve.

New Messages and format enhancements:
1. A new feature has been added called “SIGNIFICANT MATCHES”. We are looking for matches that will have an impact on rankings. Ranked and STQ wrestlers losing matches mainly. Input is greatly needed on this one.
2. I have on good authority that some wrestlers will be down to the weight class they are currently ranked this week, despite competing up one weight class now.
3. When you see a wrestler’s grade followed by /// and a weight, this indicates that the word on the street is they are going down to the weight class listed. See 220 and 285 below.
4. Some weight classes have their STQs transitioned into the Ranked section already. This will be an ongoing goal for each weight class. 106 is there now.
5. Some weight classes have the designation “STQ & UP”. This happens when a wrestler from the “Pack” defeats a returning STQ. The STQ & UP will be maintained until further intel is gathered.
6. Another new feature has been added at the end of the rankings report called “TRACKING”. This is where returning place winners and STQ are placed until they appear in their school’s scores and their weight class is known. Once found, they will be ranked.
7.


Guidelines:
1. Wrestlers begin the preseason ranked based on how they finished at the previous state tournament.
2. Incoming freshman begin the season unranked.
3. The basis of the Bear tracks ranking system is “To be the man, you have to beat the man”.
4. Each weight class will begin divided into three sub categories. During the preseason, the “ranked” wrestlers will be only returning state place winners. The “STQ” will be returning state tournament qualifiers that did not place. The “Pack” will be all incoming freshmen and NON-STQs.
5. Added feature for 2019/2020. The returning STQs will be ranked based on wins and losses at the state tournament. A wrestler that went 1-2 will be ranked higher than a wrestler that went 0-2.
6. During the preseason, wrestlers will be assigned to their given weight class based on Super 32 registration, the highly reliable tool known as “Word on the Street” and the newly created quantitative programs developed by the Bear Tracks Analytics Team.
7. Any head to head WV vs WV matches that take place at Super 32 will be used to adjust rankings.
8. By popular demand, the wrestler’s grade will now be recognized on their resume.
9. Wrestlers will be recognized as follows: Name/School/State Placement/Region/Grade/Source. The source is one of the three topics listed above in guideline 6.
10. In the beginning, rankings will be created on the best available information and updated as information becomes accessible.
