The games played column is beginning to get a workout, so it’s time for the first OHT35 of the season. For most teams there is one more week of exhibition play before the regular season starts.

NOTE: This is NOT a ranking. The results have just been entered onto the tables I intend to use this year.

* indicates total includes a tie game
Conf. indicates overall conference record
Conf-x indicates exhibition record within conference
USP-x indicates exhibition record within USports but outside conference
USP ∑ indicates regular season and exhibition record against USports teams
Other indicates record against non-USports teams
Total indicates record against all teams
AOA is the average of averages against each category of opponent.
~ Indicates results “smoothed” to reduce impact of categories with fewer games. The categories are merged and the value applied to both.

The pre-season component of the exhibition/non-conference portion of the season has wrapped up this weekend. I have assigned a preliminary grade for each team.

NOTE: This is NOT a ranking. The teams are sorted by their preliminary grade then alphabetically by conference. From the end of last season, the changes are:

CW: Alberta drops from B to C+, Manitoba is up from C- to C+.

OUA West: Brock drops from B to C+, Guelph is up from C to C+, and Waterloo and Western Ontario are up from C- to C+.

OUA East: Carleton is up from C to C+, and RMC and York are up from C- to C.

AUS: Acadia and UPEI are up from C to C+, St. FX is down from C+ to C, and Dalhousie is up from C- to C.
