SCC revamps tier schedule for football
>>The Southern Connecticut Conference’s three-tier system will return for a fourth football season but with a few changes.
First the teams have been ranked in order from 1 through 21 using what commissioner Al Carbone calls “objective data” victories against teams in each tier based over a four-year period (2015-18 seasons).<<
>>The number one team plays the hardest schedule and so forth. This was the best way to go. Everyone in the room said there is no perfect schedule, but with this format, the No. 1 team (Shelton) plays the hardest schedule and the No. 21 team (Bassick) plays the easiest.”<<
The breakdown by tier, in order, is as follows:
Tier 1: Shelton, West Haven, North Haven, Fairfield Prep, Hand, Notre Dame-WH, Xavier.
Tier 2: Cheshire, Sheehan, Hillhouse, Harding, Wilbur Cross, Amity Regional, Hamden.
Tier 3: East Haven, Foran, Branford, Jonathan Law, Guilford, Lyman Hall, Bassick
