Darryl Watson (Chairman) presented a status report on the Ranking Committee for 2024. The Committee has expanded to 13 members:
Darryl Watson Tommy Bussey Joe Lewis
Bill Picht Gary Robertson Ernie Lopez
Ellwin Jobe Herb Epple Lanny Witt
Bob Holly Pete Lewis John Reedy
Paul Enriquez
Darryl mentioned that a new database has been created into which every NCSSA tournament game will be input. This will allow the committee members to track each team’s tournament performance (i.e., who they played, what their opponent’s rankings were, the game scores, etc.). The team rankings in general have been fairly accurate in the past and with the addition of performance data for each team, the rankings should be even more improved. The Committee will go back to including each team’s overall record on the rankings sheet.
