MIAA Postseason Rankings, A Tale of Thousandths of a Point

 


As of 1:00 AM, Melrose is in fifth trailing by 0.009 points. 

Melrose's Middlesex League opponent Winchester lost 3-2 today at Barnstable. It is unclear how much that could raise Melrose's 'strength of schedule' (Opponent Value). 

A first round fourth seed would match up against the twenty-ninth (currently Danvers). A fifth seed would host Amherst-Pelham. 

It's possible that there would be "play in" games at the bottom of the rankings. 

The advantage of a top four seed is three potential home games.
