Here at Steel City Blitz we are happy to provide the best independent coverage of Western Pennsylvania High School Football that you can find. Three years ago, when the PIAA made the move from four to six classifications, we began tracking results and using them to comparatively rank WPIAL teams. We developed a WPIAL ELO Ranking system using a similar formula to the one used by FIFA to rank soccer teams.
What Is ELO?
ELO is a ranking system that was developed to rank international chess players. From there, it was adapted for other rankings systems.
