SEASON NOTES

The biggest shift in Arlington's season has come in its defense. Arlington allowed 30.8 points per game over its first 4 games (1-3), #64 in section in that timeframe. In the 4 games since that slow start (2-2), the Spy Ponders have allowed 11.2 points per game, a 63% drop, #11 in section in that window. The schedule deserves some of the credit: Arlington's last 4 opponents have averaged 16.9 points per game, a #52 offense in section on the season, against 40.8 points per game, #2 for the first 4. Measured against those opponents' norms (16.9 points per game), Arlington held those offenses 33% below what they usually score. Only winchester red and-winchester-ma broke through in that span, putting up 38 on 10/16. On the season, Arlington ranks #38 in section in scoring defense.

Arlington's offense from the opening weeks has gone missing since. The Spy Ponders averaged 24.4 points per game over their first 5 games (2-3), #22 in section during that time. Over the stretch of 3 games that followed (1-2), Arlington has averaged 9.3 points per game, a 62% drop, #67 in section through those games. The schedule doesn't excuse it: the last 3 opponents have been softer, averaging 23.3 points per game, a #47 scoring defense in section on the season, against 18.4 points per game, #29 for the first 5. Measured against those opponents' norms (23.3 points per game), Arlington scored 60% less than those defenses usually allow. Arlington was held to 14 points or fewer 3 times in those games, including 0 against woburn memorial-woburn-ma on 10/23. On the season, the Spy Ponders rank #44 in section in scoring.
