George has an average bowling score of 180 and bowls in a league where the average for all bowlers is 150 and the standard deviation is 20. Bill has an average bowling score of 190 and bowls in a league where the average is 160 and the standard deviation is 15. Who ranks higher in his own league, George or Bill?

• Bill, because his 190 is higher than George's 180.
• Bill, because his standardized score is higher than George's.
• Bill and George have the same rank in their league because both are 30 pins above the mean.
• George, because his standardized score is higher than Bill's.
