Comparative Statistics 1990-Present

The following numbers show how the 2007 team compares with teams from 1990-present in certain categories. The last number is the ranking.

It's important to consider the context of these numbers. In 2001, Wayne County moved from Southern Wayne High School to Mount Olive College. Legion teams don't play enough games for us to draw solid conclusions regarding park effects - what influence the field has on scoring - but common sense says that the change in venue hurt the offense and helped the defense. Therefore take that into consideration when making the comparisons.

Only one team that played at MOC- the 2002 squad that was second in the state - is in the top ten in runs per game. The three teams that have the most strikeouts per nine innings have the most wins.
