MCRHL First-Half Computer Rankings Released

The MCRHL will host four hockey weekends and numerous home games in the second semester of the 2003-2004 season, with all of the games meaning something in the race for position in the first ever MCRHL Tournament. The MCRHL Computer Rankings are designed to help predict the playoff seeds by taking into account games played, points earned in those games, and the opponents they were earned against. The rankings are a way to help project what the final standings will be. Therefore, over the next semester, it?s not likely that the order of the rankings will change drastically, but in the Active Division alone, 4 teams are separated by 5/100 of a point. Here are the first semester computer rankings, which will be good until the first games of the second semester are played on January 10, 2004. Active Division 1. Michigan State (.7511) 2.
