So Laxnumbers has Riverside as the best public school. But dmv rankings doesn’t even have them ranked.  What is going on?[/quote]

Also considered in the overall (not just public) rankings. I don't see any public rankings.

Lax Numbers is math based on formulas. [/quote]

There are 4 Va public schools ahead of them in the dmv rankings. How can 2 rankings be so off. MadLax hates Riverside?[/quote]

Sigh, I'll play along.

Lax Numbers is based on a formula, there are no humans. It's games computed based on criteria, including a type of SOS and scores etc. You can spend 3.3 seconds and find this information - https://www.laxnumbers.com/faq.php

DMV Rankings has human voters I do believe. And they will have different opinions and biases on outcomes, SOS, quality of teams etc. DMV Rankings had Gonzaga at #8 from one week to the next despite losing two games and being winless, as an example of how a system of human voting can possibly be skewed.

Most likely DMV Rankings has little pondering on any public schools. [/quote]

lol it’s only one person voting.. [/quote]

I don’t believe that to be accurate. [/quote]

Coaches give input to madlax about individual players at the end of the year. Weekly rankings are decided by madlax. No votes. Public is always off at the beginning of the year with them over ranking public’s that participate in madlax events in the off season. They usually have it right by the end of the season. We should all be happy they are giving love to public’s at all. Riverside will move up the rankings quickly after DeMatha Urbana and Madison.[/quote]

They were seeking out voters before the season, I assume thy got some and were using multiple inputs. I don’t see any indie on how they do rankings on their very muddled page, my bad if it is just MadLax. [/quote]
