Conner has certainly performed better that expected so far , but what rankings are you using as benchmarks? From where did they improve from ? Which list or poll ? Wasn't the January 3 list the first one?

Yea curios about the criteria. West Jessamine had to be ranked at the bottom but is off to their best start in history at 10-3. Have 4 key players out right now going into County Clash against East tonight.

The improvement is calculated by taking the January 3 Ranking and subtracting from the Preseason Ranking. We don't publish the preseason basketball ranking yet, because it's never super accurate - we take too much flack! In soccer we feel like we've built up enough street cred to do it, but there is still flack. I think a lot of people enjoy it though since they can follow and track their team through out the year. Let me look into West Jess.

I only copied the Top 10 here, but on the maherrankings site, we've shown the top 50. West Jess is the 18th highest Mover of the Year, moving up 36 spots already. They have gained 7.13 scaled rating points, from 54.14 to 61.27 - the 30th best improvement in scaled rating. So, they made the top 50 in both categories!
