Each side is the sum of its three boats (the skipper's fleet rating times 0.72 plus a team race offset learned from their past matches, plus the crew's offset and a small experience term) plus the school's team race strength and a home-water edge for the host. The win probability is a logistic function of the difference. The forecast was made before the event: the model was refitted on every match sailed before the first day, with fleet ratings as of the week before.
Fitted on the 1,348 team race matches sailed before 2015-09-20, using the line-ups that actually raced. It called 0 of 2 matches (0%) with a log-loss of 0.766 (a coin flip scores 0.693), so the event went poorly for the forecast. vs forecast is a team's wins minus the wins the model expected from the matches it sailed: positive means it beat its rating.
| Place | School | Pred. | Strength | Boats (skipper / crew, boat value) | Pred. win % | Record | vs forecast |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | Edmund Burke School Varsity 1 | 2 | 2.63 | Ryan Hennesy / Talia Frank Will Delong / Gabriel Cropsey No Show | 46% | 2–0 (100%) | +1.1 |
| 4 | Edmund Burke School Varsity 2 | 1 | 2.81 | Tye Rubin / River Carson Marley Hillman / Gabriel Cropsey Genevieve Dickinson / Talia Frank | 54% | 0–2 (0%) | −1.1 |
For each side, the performance strength is the value that would have made its record least surprising: the strength at which the model's expected wins over exactly these opponents equal the actual wins, with every opponent fixed at its pre-event strength. For a skipper, the same shift is applied only to their boat in the matches they sailed, with team-mates and opponents fixed; team-mates who sailed every match together therefore get the same number. Surprise is in bits: -log2 of the probability of the record at the pre-event strength minus the same at the performance strength. P(this good or better) treats matches as independent coin flips at the model's pre-event probabilities, so it ignores form within the day; read it as a rough guide.
Pre-event strength against the strength that would have made each record least surprising, everything else fixed. Δ is in the model's logit units, the same scale as the boat values above (a side is three boats plus the school term); green is a clear over-performance, red a clear under-performance. Skippers need three or more matches.

Probability the model gave the side that went on to win. Red bars are upsets (the winner was given under 50%).
