Standings as of 2022-4-1

In the 2022 Season, we have 36 technical upsets in 128 ranked matches (71.88% success rate) across 21 events.

The Gonzalez System is a computer ranking model similar to Elo and is a rating exchange system based on research performed by World Rugby. It has been adapted by the NCDA to the demands of College Dodgeball, but can be tuned and customized endlessly to incorporate accurate data. It has been used to help determine seeds for the Nationals bracket since Nationals 2014, and was used exclusively for each Nationals bracket since 2017.

Technical Upset Spotlight

A technical upset in the Gonzalez System is when a lower rated team defeats a higher rated team. The overall success rate of the system is currently 79.80% based on 434 technical upsets in 2,148 ranked matches played since 09-25-2010. There was one technical upset since our last standings update.
