Uninvested party here, but if I were KJR - I'm not even sure I'd worry about getting the games reinstated. The only rankings system that matters now discounts forfeits entirely, so their teams aren't being penalized ratings-wise - other than not having the wins recorded. If you look at the tables of what is left, and add the current ratings of all teams, it shows some interesting data.
Here is the 2005 table:

Here is the 2007 table:

Even with their entire SoCal season results erased, their 2007 Girls are still rated higher than every team in the league - all of which are actually 2006. And with their entire SoCal season results erased, their 2005 Girls remain rated higher than every team in the league save 1.
Having the league try and punish them by flipping everything to forfeits doesn't really have the effect the league is hoping for. It's still obvious to all the relative strength of these teams - and they should be wished good luck as they leave the rest of these teams in the rear view.
Thanks for this and your point is well taken. However I do want to highlight that at least for the Tudela 05’s, removing their ten fall league Discovery NPL results did make a huge difference in their rankings. Tuesday morning, with all ten actual scores already in the youthsoccerrankings model, the Tudela FC 05’s were ranked #19 in California. By this morning, with those same ten results removed, their CA ranking had dropped from 19 to 85. Yes they are just rankings and we all take them with a grain of salt, and yes these girls are almost aged out so what does it matter anyway, but people (including college coaches) do look at them and it’s a great accomplishment for our girls to be up there in the rankings with the ECNL teams for the last couple years. They worked hard for it. Such a shame for it to be taken away just like that.
