Once again, SCSOCCER.COM has partnered with Kenneth Massey of the Virginia Tech Mathematics Department to compile the annual year-end "power ratings".
Mr. Massey graduated Summa Cum Laude from Bluefield College (Bluefield, VA) in 1997 and is currently enrolled in the Ph.D. program at VPI.
In addition, Mr. Massey is one of the members of the Bowl Championship Series panel, in which he develops and implements the college football rating model used by the NCAA to determine participants in the national championship game.
Listed below are the Top 50 Boys teams based on the "Power Ratings" -- a full list will be provided when time permits and will be available only to subscribers of SCSOCCER.COM when school begins in August.
