Couriers rated by Jeff Sagarin

For the first time ever, the Couriers are ranked in the Indiana High School Basketball Sagarin Ratings for the 2007-2008 basketball season. Jeff Sagarin has compiled a fairly complex computer ranking system that ranks Indiana basketball teams from #1 to #402. The Couriers are 390th this week with a win over Hamilton (377th in 1A) and a loss to Bethany Christian (342nd in 1A). They received no points for the win over unaffiliated First Baptist.

Saturday's opponent Elkhart Baptist (1-0 before tonight's game at Prairie Heights) is #352 in Class 1A.
