2022’s Best Sprint Crews

March 20, 2023March 19, 2023 mixcspeedratings

Our most expansive category are the sprints. 100m through 400m, 4x100m through 4x400m. Six events which really separate the wheat from the chaff, the men from the boys, and the Renaissance Phoenix from any other crew of girls.

Just to recap, these rankings and these scores are my attempt to compare across events. Based on the top United States HS athletes from 2022, I created my own version of World Athletics scores. These scores are based on historical data and compare across the wide range of track events, same as mine attempt to do.

Here are the BOYS SCORES and GIRLS SCORES.

The way the scoring works is this:

An athlete produces a time/mark that is better than the additional qualifier for Regionals (or the equivalent for relays).
For each team in each event, the four highest scores (or lower, depending on how many hit the mark) are added together.
Within each event area, those event scores are added together and ranked from highest to lowest.
For the relays, the scores are scaled to match the scoring total of the individual events.

Without further adieu, the Best Sprint Crews:

2022’s Best Jump Crews

March 15, 2023March 16, 2023 mixcspeedratings

The final field events! The jumps likely have the least commonality of any of the non-running events. You’ll have more throwers who do both shot and disc, more hurdlers that do both the low and high hurdles. Perhaps in season, I’ll separate the two. I’ll finish up with 2022’s Sprints on Sunday, then Individuals on Tuesday, after that, competition is LIVE.

2022’s Best Distance Crews

March 14, 2023 mixcspeedratings

Back again with a look at 2022’s Best Crews. This time, the most recognizable to the loyal readers out there – the Distance Crews. This is the first of the bunch that includes relays. You’ll notice the relays aren’t scored in the same ballpark as individuals, rather they’re scaled to attempt to match their importance in a meet and roughly equal the same output as a great band of individuals.

Intro – Detailing the Scoring Method

BOYS TABLES

GIRLS TABLES

You’ll also notice that the top squads here are eerily similar to those who placed on podiums in November. Perhaps a lesson to those who don’t value track as much. You put in the work this spring and you’ll see the payoff in the fall.

I think I’ve figured out the schedule that I want to release these. I’ll try to rotate through every 2 weeks, in this order – Sunday: Jumps, Tuesday: Hurdles, Thursday: Vault, Sunday: Distance, Tuesday: Throws, Thursday: Sprints. Spreading it out should give me time to write a sentence, paragraph, or word about battles and rivalries in each event, each division.

Hope you enjoy another sub-40 degree day!
