Question, anyone know if they deduct the -3 points in the loss and divide by Total Matches? The reason I ask is that Cassioppi's numbers don't add up that way. Cass has wrestled 17 official matches (doesn't include all-star match against Kerk). According to NCAA he has averaged 4.82 team points per match - which implies a total of 82 "net total team points scored" (17 marches × 4.82). This seems impossible as he has bonused in 11 matches, DEC in 5 matches and lost by DEC in one. IOW, 12 "net team points" via decision (5-1 in matches decided by DEC). This would imply that he scored 70 team points in his 11 victories determined by bonus - but that's impossible as 70 ÷ 11 = 6.36 team points scored per match he won by bonus????
The NCAA is averaging only 16 of his matches (the wins - i.e. 16 x 4.82 = 77 team points scored) - however they are completely ignoring that he surrendered 3 team points in his loss and the "net team points scored" (74) should be average by 17 matches. So in reality, the true AVERAGE team points scored per match for Cassioppi is 4.35 per match in 17 matches (74 net team points scored divided by 17 matches), not 4.82 team points per his 17 matches at wrestled this year to date.
