The Utah High School Activities Association has released the first RPI rankings for the 3A Girls Soccer season, which has reached its midpoint for most schools throughout the classification.
Real Salt Lake Academy sits in the top spot in the first edition of the UHSAA rankings after racing out to a 4-3 start overall. Manti, at 7-2 holds the No. 2 spot and Morgan, Canyon View and Richfield round out the top five.
With one region game under their belt, an unfortunate loss to Canyon View, Carbon enters the RPI at No.7 with a 5-3-1 record. The Lady Dinos head back to the field Thursday at 4 p.m..
The Emery Lady Spartans are currently ranked 16th in the initial rankings. They finished the non-region portion of their schedule 2-6 and start league play Thursday at hom,e against Grand.
With region action now underway roughly seven games remain on the regular schedule for most 3A teams. The season will continue through the first week of October, with the state playoffs to follow shortly after.
The RPI standings are determined by three statistically categories:
*MWP (Modified Winning Percentage): Divide the number of possible points by the number of total available points from games played accounting for the adjustment between classifications.
*OWP (Opponents Winning Percentage): Average of the winning percentage of a team’s opponent.
*OOWP (Opponents’ Opponents Winning Percentage): Same process as OWP except the calculation is with the opponents of the team’s opponent.
