Pingry wins about 66 times in 100.
What’s on the line: seeding in Non-Public B
Non-public seeds come from a committee. Our formula follows its rule: head-to-head first, then common opponents, then Strength Index. Tonight's winner goes above the loser; the margin still moves both teams' Strength Index against everyone else.
If it ended today: Pingry, No. 11 seed, at St. Thomas Aquinas; Morristown-Beard, No. 14 seed, at Donovan Catholic. The week’s other results can move this too.
The margin
How the final score moves each team’s Strength Index. Pingry is expected to win by 5.4, so it gains only by winning by more than that. Morristown-Beard gains with any win.
