[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IAC's signature win of 2024 is Bullis over 6th best in MIAA. Bullis, Landon, and GP all lost to mid/lower tier MIAA teams, but none of them have a major victory to hang their hat on.[quote]

Let's look at some facts:

Bullis has a great win over Spalding (Spalding is currently in 4th in the MIAA A Division)
Landon has great wins over Bullis, GP and Highland Park out of Texas
SJC has a great win over Gilman and Taft.
Gonzaga has a great win over Bullis.
Prep, has no good wins this spring as both Loyola and Saint Mary's appear to be very down this year compared to recent years.

[/quote]Best teams in the country play top flight schedules. Only DC teams to do that are SJC (went 1-4) and Gonzaga (0-3). Landon tested itself twice outside IAC and went 0-2. [/quote]

I respect programs that want to play a top-flight national schedule. As a previous poster pointed out, some programs regardless if they are up or down, will always continue to play one another (i.e Loyola Blakefield vs GP or Landon vs Saint Pauls etc). You don't get points for losing to opponents on the national stage - you need to win. Moral victories don't matter.

While everyone has their subjective viewpoints here, Inside Lacrosse produces a daily RPI Rating that incorporates teams SOS, and how common opponents perform throughout the season.

This ranking above is different than the weekly Q-Collar rankings as it is purely objective and derived from computer algorithms and takes into account no human assessment. The RPI ratings get more accurate as the season goes on as more game results are inputted into the system.
