[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can tell you for a fact that there is no fact checking with stats for All-Met.  As for other awards at least for public schools, it’s as good as the parents taking the stats.  Which means, parents and or coaches can absolutely mess with the stats, to a point.  You can add a couple goals and assists, GBs, etc.. but if you go overboard that will probably raise a red flag.  [/quote]

Public vs private these are volunteers so there is no correlation to one being more accurate than another. Our school has two books with the stats being verified following each game. To the point of this thread it’s needed to maintain integrity and gain the trust of those who do have to make award selections. Stats for all players are published after each game and for the season to date, so padding stats would be a tall order. It would not surprise me to hear from those issuing awards say they know schools they can trust with the data. Additionally, for those who see stats all the time it would not be hard to recognize when numbers are out of whack.[/quote]
