MA HS Ratings

Why wait until Tuesday or Friday? Football Ratings updated nightly. All ratings unofficial. Not affiliated with any state athletic organizations.

It’s amazing that they don’t have access to tools like AI that can, you know, flag errors in a moment’s work at either BPS or, more importantly, the MIAA. Especially when every game has a ripple effect that is felt throughout the state in this playoff system, simply blaming the BPS AD is a cop out. @ZoandBertrand @scottzolak

"One of the massive failures by the MIAA"

@MassLiveHS @MattVautour424 There are more errors that impacted the ratings - see them in detail over at https://t.co/qVwY0F3TDy

Soccer rankings have been updated based on final scores and records files. We have a couple discreps on the boys side, girls looks error free. I'm sure these will be rectified at the papal conclave on Forge parkway this morning 🙄

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

@chriscfore @Andy_Villamarzo It wasn't the only issue with the MA brackets that the MIAA isn't stepping up about...

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

Absolutely unacceptable that an organization exists to ensure that everything is entered properly and we know the formula (because that was all the whining about using @maxpreps) and it’s still wrong. And they were tagged moments after brackets were released but they made 0 change

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

So the MIAA arbiter file from this morning has a few issues - no English-OBryant score from Friday (12-6), has St B’s-Oxford 34-28, it was reported 36-28. Teams are allowed to attempt two point conversions after the game has been decided when it is known to affect playoff qualifying. And STILL no Hoosac - Hudson NY final in arbiter @HVHSHurricanes

Should the MIAA lose this decision, they can always come to https://t.co/qVwY0F3TDy to get the accurate ratings free of other clerical errors like unmarked forfeits and games that count twice

Boston Public Schools to appeal MIAA decision that keeps English/New Mission football out of playoffs https://t.co/AGz7bxaqjs

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

@BenVolin MIAA should have done the right thing and counted the game. Hell, they had no problem counting Millis-Worcester Tech twice in their final rankings

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

Well imaagine that. Should have also mentioned the other “clerical errors” in the football brackets which impacted seeding explained in detail at https://t.co/aPoTgEtvsh
Thanks for covering this @nweitzer7

Clerical error keeps English High football team out of postseason https://t.co/ZYt2nybFQH

A little further digging shows that if an unscheduled game is played after the committed schedules are locked in - the penalty is a forfeit “A school shall not participate in any contest(s) not listed on a team’s schedule as of the Schedule Commitment Deadline…. Any violation of this policy will result in the team receiving a forfeit loss for each unscheduled contest played.” That wasn’t applied either. Really weird here

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

Don’t let this distract you from the fact that the MIAA is playing playoffs with incorrect brackets

Message from the MIAA:

The Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association was informed late last week that the utilization of Gillette Stadium for the MIAA Football Championships is no longer an option.

We thank the Patriots organization for hosting this event for nearly two decades.

Whereas the 2026 MIAA Football Tournament begins this week, we will work diligently to secure host sites that provide the best possible championship experience for our student athletes and our school communities.

@atlas1j Wild that a league game doesn’t count toward power ratings and wasn’t on committed schedules

PROJECTED Volleyball Brackets. Using scores upload from Nov 2. Once again, very well could be changes to this

100% Accuracy

PROJECTED Field Hockey Brackets. Utilizing scores file updated 11/2 at 4am. Could be some changes, or maybe not, because we all know the MIAA does what the MIAA does. Football Debacle explained here https://t.co/GPhZgRRvOo

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

Definitely no “ball knowledge” with either volleyball or field hockey, so just applying the reported scores file to the last available power rankings. If the scores hold from the file, this is what it would be. My guess is there will be changes with ADs verifying all the scores in arbiter, but anything is possible

@benjune @MIAA033 @In_The_Slot @GlobeSchools @BosHeraldSports @MassLiveHS @sportsCCT @sports_ledger @tgsports @SunChronSports Same. There’s certainly been enough media alerted to this as well. Best part is, anyone can check my math and the reason for the discrepancies. Unsure why everyone carries the water for this organization

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

Big problems in brackets @MIAA033 @In_The_Slot @GlobeSchools @BosHeraldSports @MassLiveHS @sportsCCT @sports_ledger @tgsports @SunChronSports

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

So did English opt out? Or was the O Bryant game just never entered into arbiter thus only giving them “6” games? Millis 2-7? Worcester tech 3-6? Appears their game was counted twice? @MIAA033 your brackets have errors

[MA HS Ratings @MAHsRatings]

Kids : Aww man maybe we’ll get to play at BC though!

@MIAA033 :

[Brendan Connelly @BConn63]

By now, the news is out. Gillette Stadium will not be hosting the MIAA Super Bowls this upcoming December. A shocking blow for student athletes, parents and coaches everywhere.

The MIAA released this statement confirming the news. I spoke with a source from the offices who says that there is no official replacement for a championship site as of yet. We could be looking at anywhere from 2-4 locations possibly being used when all is said and done. Logistically, especially at this stage, the news presents a lot of challenges. A possibility for one hosting site - Bentley University, though that hasn't been confirmed yet. @BosHeraldSports @Murray_Jack_
