LaxPower, the world’s leading authority on lacrosse team performance ratings, has announced the National Coaches/Computer Ratings for high school boys’ lacrosse for the recently completed 2013 season.
Ward Melville is LaxPower’s national champion for 2013. The Patriots capped off an undefeated season (22-0) by winning the 2013 New York Class A title. They placed in first place in both the computer ratings and the coaches’ poll, where they received 22 of 25 first-place votes. No. 2 Boys’ Latin (MD) received two first-place votes and finished second in the computer ratings. Pennsylvania PIAA champion La Salle College HS rounded out the top three. The top five programs in the country for 2013:
#1: Ward Melville, East Setauket, NY (22-0) — New York Class A champion
#2: Boys’ Latin, Baltimore, MD (19-1) — MIAA A finalist
#3: La Salle College High School, Wyndmoor, PA (23-2) — Pennsylvania PIAA champion
#4: Garden City, Garden City, NY (19-3) — New York Class B champion
#5: Chaminade, Mineola, NY (15-2) — New York Catholic AAA champion
The final rankings were compiled using LaxPower’s CCR rating formula, which combines the national computer ratings with a national poll. The computer ratings used for the rankings are based on over 27,800 game scores for 3,617 high school teams. The poll is a product of rankings by 25 high school coaches from around the country. Each of these parameters represents 50% of the final tallied results.
Detailed information for all teams can be found at the link below. The combined CCR ranking, the computer ratings, the results of the poll voting, the members of the coaches poll panel, and a detailed explanation of the computer formula are available. Results for the Top 25 on each of the components and overall are presented at the bottom of this page.
