4C Basketball Math Rankings - January 15th

These rankings were based on two criteria - winning percentage and points per game. These stats are based on the results of the simulations the students conducted in class. The teams were placed into four categories based on winning percentage (100%, 67%, 33%, and 0%). The teams in each category were then ordered greatest to least based on each team's points per game average (The students calculated this by finding the sum of their points and dividing by the number of games played). Here are the rankings we compiled:

1. North Carolina (3-0)
1. Duke (3-0)
