After months and months, our journey with the rankings for this school year has come to an end. With the conclusion of 2019 PACE NSC, the HSQB season for the 2018-19 year has come to a close. We decided we would try to post a post-nationals rankings including PACE NSC 2019 and HSNCT 2019 for overall, NAQT-only, mACF-only, Hard Sets only, and most interestingly (in our view at least) nationals only where the rankings are solely based on HSNCT 2019 and PACE NSC 2019 with no regular season tournaments taken into account.
This set of rankings will focus on “Hard Sets”-only rankings, with the final adjustments posted below.
The following rankings were brought to you by our Patreon subscribers. You too can get your name here on future rankings by subscribing at patreon.com/grogerranks:
