Success Factor
FOR THE SPORTS OF: BASEBALL, BASKETBALL, SOCCER,
SOFTBALL & VOLLEYBALL
April 12, 2016

2. Calculating the Success Factor:
1. Points will be cumulative for a three-year period.
2. Points will be awarded based upon the finish of the team in the tournament series.
Points do not accumulate during the tournament series.
a. 4 points for winning a state title
b. 3 points for advancing to the championship game
c. 2 points for advancing to the state semifinal (final 4)
d. 1 point for advancing to the state quarterfinal (final 8)
Introduction: This document provides an analysis of data since 2000-2001 when the private
schools became members of the WIAA. Data was analyzed to apply the success factor to
determine divisional placement in WIAA tournament competition for the sports of baseball,
basketball, soccer, softball and volleyball.
Points of Emphasis:
1. The success factor will be a three-year cumulative total of no less than six points in
all divisions of the previous three years.
2. Teams promoted using the success factor will be promoted to the next division
from the previous year. No team will be moved more than one division per year.
3. Promotion will only be in the sport where the school has achieved the six points.
4. All teams promoted using the success factor will be locked into the promoted
division and the remaining schools will be placed based on enrollment.
5. If success factor points over the previous three years are less than six points in all
divisions, promoted teams will leave the division.

**Addition of the 5th
Division
Note: One cannot speculate how teams may have done in their new division, so if a move was indicated, their
division stayed consistent.
