I must admit, when it comes to athletics, projecting how things might go is just as exciting for me as breaking down the actual results.

Predictive metrics are being used in just about every sport imaginable. 

It's used in MaxPreps' ratings system, which is used by the Idaho High School Activities Association to seed teams at various state tournaments.

It's used in college and professional sports front offices.

And it's used here at IdahoSports.com during our Bracketology series (used for both football and basketball this year.)

I've decided to bring the projections to the spring sports landscape as well, specifically in track and field.

It's fun to predict how team races might go in all five of Idaho's classifications.  Using the current leaderboards in every event, we can project how many points can be scored.

The top eight placers in each event at the state meet receive points:

1st Place receives 10 points
2nd Place receives 8 points
3rd Place receives 6 points
4th Place receives 5 points
5th Place receives 4 points
6th Place receives 3 points
7th Place receives 2 points
8th Place receives 1 point


So here's how the state fields might look.  These will be updated every Thursday.
