Ohio wrestling analytics
Hello Ohio wrestling community,
I am excited to share with you a new Elo rating system that I have created specifically for Ohio High School wrestling. As many of you know, Elo ratings are mathematical models commonly used in sports to measure the skill level of competitors or teams.
Here's how it works: Each wrestler will begin with a base rating, determined by their past performance and other pertinent factors. After every match, the rating will be updated based on the outcome of the match, the caliber of their opponent, and the level of dominance they achieved (pin, tech, major, dec). To ensure the accuracy of our results, I'm using data from JakesWrestling.com, which contains a majority of matches across the state. However, please note that some matches might be missing, such as dual meets and tournaments not uploaded to common wrestling websites like TrackWrestling or Baumspage.
If you find this to be a valuable resource, I plan on running these ratings weekly beginning next season.
Your feedback and suggestions are welcome as I work to refine this system and make it even better.
I've attached the full end of year ratings for all weight classes in Division 1 - other divisions to follow shortly.
