If your strategy is to maximize your US club lax ranking, this is exactly what you do. Play mostly teams ranked 40-70 in the country.
If it much easier to beat the #50 team by 8 then to simply beat a top 10 team. The way rankings work, beating the #50 team in the country by 8 will usually get you more points than tying the #10 team.[/quote]
Starting to believe this is really the case! When you look at teams like FLG and Top Guns, it seems the strategy is to play in lower brackets and against lower teams for most of the season until the final few summer tournaments of the year. But how can you blame them when all of us are on here talking about rankings.
