Top 50 Individuals

Welcome to the SwimWV's exclusive Top Individual Rankings. I have explained in the video how this is computed. Bascially, I input every best time swam into a spreadsheet. After I do this, the Spreadsheet will calculate what the best time is in every event and then the percentage away each swimmer is from a top time. Then I will take the average percentage points away per event you swim. Then I will also subtract your highest percentage and replace that with your lowest percentage to get a weighted average. So here are the Top 60 Male Swimmers in WV.

This video explains how I compiled these rankings if you wanted to know.

This was the old way of scoring!

The NISCA (National Interscholastic Swimming Coaches Association) has a scoring system that is based on the time that a swimmer gets on a specific event based on top swims across the nation. This system gives each time a point value based on a 0-200 point scale. Based on the previous years stats, a 200 point score for an event would be given to the swimmer with the top time in that event across the United States. Each year, this organization compiles a list of times and then formulates a numeric point value to each time for each event. If a swimmer receives a point total of 100 points or higher, that swimmer is faster than half of high schoolers across the entire United States.

With this information, I have compiled a list of the Top 50 all around swimmers in the state of West Virginia. I use two methods to compile this list. The first, is the average NISCA point scale per event the swimmer swims. The second, is the total NISCA points a swimmer earns. I then rank each swimmer for best average and best total points. I then average the two rankings to come up with an overall Top 50 individual Swimmer. The time standards for boys are here and the time standard for girls are here.
