Re: Division II PATH Stats

5. Tim Youker, Stan, 59.74
6. Matt
Reece, Chi, 59.63
7. Vinita Kailasanath, Stan,
58.40

Considering that Stanford's twin towers were 6th (Tim) and
7th (Vinita) before [PATH], and they were both less
than a tossup behind Justin from Sewanee (relative to
Stanford he was a 1-man team), wouldn't we think that
either of them would surpass Justin by
him/herself?>>

Yes and no.

Point 1: Justin's teammates
contributed 67 TUs and 13 -5s. I hardly think that qualifies
Justin as a "one-man" team. [By comparison, Tim's
teammates contributed 82 TUs and 16 -5s.]

Point 2:
Justin started off with 100 more points in TUs than Tim,
and 130 more than Vinita. While Tim and Vinita's
stats were pushed up more than Justin's--2.8 PATH
separate them, rather than 6.4 PP20TH--the additional
boost each of them received wasn't quite enough to
overtake Justin.

And again, I will point out that
from a statistical standpoint, the difference between
them is essentially insignificant.
