Height & Winning Part 2
Continuing on from last night..
Tartan 5-11 vs Blaine 5-7.8 the biggest squad yet by over 3 inches 9-6
Irondale 5-8.6 vs North St. Paul 5-7.8, big again 10-6
Hopkins 5-10.2 vs Cretin-Derham Hall 5-10, Big on a roll 11-6
Apple Valley 5-9.2 vs Omaha Skutt 5-8.8, big, big 12-6
Mounds View 5-10 vs Stillwater 5-7.8, is their a stop? 13-6
Hill-Murray 5-9.2 vs Centennial 5-7.8 not yet 14-6
Owatonna 5-7.4 vs Lakeville South 5-9.8 now there is 14-7
Cretin-Derham Hall 5-9.4 vs Park-Cottage Grove 5-11.2 the biggest fell 14-8

So at this point the bigger team has won at a .636 rate. The only team at 5-10+ that lost to a smaller team was PCG. The only 5-7 and change team to win was St. Paul Johnson over Armstrong and it took them overtime to do it. Again I believe is the perimeter size with defensive arms changing passing angles, and deflections.
Add these teams to the big list
Park-Cottage Grove 11.2
Tartan 5-11
Mounds View 5-10
Cretin-Derham Hall 5-10 (when starting Gibbemeyer)
