Andover Squirts knocked out of the top ten? They are a solid team. Not sure how they match up with the south metro?

There were a couple errors to the original posting to the U14's and SQA's that are now fixed. Yes, Andover is a Top 10 team at SQA.

Are you guys playing in the EP Tourney this weekend? The top teams will be revealed in SQA by next Sunday (lotsa top 10's going head to head).

Any plans for area AAA coverage in the Summer?

I m not an Andover guy. Have just seen them play a few times. They have a solid team with good goaltending. not sure how they match up with some of those other teams.

Save the banter for the PWA! We need "Scorekeeper" to break the Bantam A Top 10 down!!

Ahhh, the PWA banter.

For the exception of the banter. PWA and BANA are very similar this year....3 teams who could lay claim to #1, "the next 5" who have multiply losses, but mostly against one another. And then 9-14 who all can make a case for spots 9 and 10.

Would you consider ranking top 20 instead of top 10?

Mike,

As our site grows we may consider adding teams 11-20 at some levels.

We polled some of our rankers recently and all of them felt that adding 11-20 was a waste of time. One said, that "11-20 diminishes the value of Top Ten, keep it 1-10...plus I can't imagine knowing that many teams..."

On the other hand opening it up to 11-20 opens up more readers and teams coming to our site.

Stay tuned, Mike. Thanks for your interest.

I'm not against 11-20 ranking, but those teams are historically the teams that all beat each other on any given night. Even the 7, 8, 9, 10 ranked teams usually are in the same class. Keep the rankings coming.

Yes. We have already started to load the teams into our database.

Should be interesting to see if it's worth it (enough eyeballs to justify the coverage). I promise no Blades v Machine banter (scouts honor)
