I'm not sure how seriously to take the following. Last season, this index had a .71 correlation to 22/23 post-season tournament seedings. I ran the same index based on this season's stats for next season's tournament. I'll elaborate in this thread.

I'm very curious about next year's version of Fossil Ridge. They were so senior dominated this season that their low non-senior scoring resulted in a #44 ranking in next season's forecast. But, as I mentioned the other day, their JV went undefeated in 22/23.
For context, here are last season's Top JV teams (Denver East only reported results from 5 games)... So it's not completely useless because all 10 of these teams qualified for the tourney.
As I mentioned elsewhere, JV records provide little insight into the future (for whatever reason). But still, it's worth acknowledging the efforts of these players.
@303Gonzo Next year's Centennial League looks like a bear. Given the prominent role that Opp Win % plays in RPI, they might cannibalize each other. Then again, similar forces were at work in this season's Continental, yet DC and Chap still qualified. It could come down to non-league games.
@303Gonzo Fossil's case bears watching because this season's version was laden with high-quality seniors. It's possible that the JV had some great players who simply couldn't break through because of the senior logjam.
