The new 6 classification system starts this year. I made an attempt to see how much parity there was between the regions in each class. To do so I used a very rough system based on the AAA, AA, and A state tournament team standings for the last two years. Top 20 teams each year in each of the old classes got 2 pts, next 20 teams each year got 1 point, teams outside the top 40 that scored team points got 0.5 points, and teams that did not score a team point but had wrestlers qualify got 0.25 pts. Then I did a bunch of averaging based on number of teams per region/conference. I know it has flaws and you can poke many holes in it but my time is limited. :) Also, I cannot guarantee I didn't make an error or two so see below and draw your own conclusions.

6A has the most balance between the regions, 4A is the most lopsided with the tougher road being thru 4A North.
Some Other odds and ents: I'm not sure there are enough teams in 1A to be statistically significant. Certainly not enough to do conference averages. Total 1A teams with wrestling is 28, the same number of teams in 5A South region or 4A North region. So can we equate a 1A state champ with a 4A or 5A region champ? God I hate having 6 champions in a state this size.
Nine conferences with an avg team score over 2.0, Are these our "Power Conferences"?
Seven conferences with an avg team score below 1.0. These are our "Basketball Conferences"? :)
Orange HS accounted for all the points for Conf 16.
Well, not that this proves anything but I had to find something to do until we find out who is at what weight so we can generate some rankings that mean something. Can't wait for November!!!
