Selection and Seeding. More info


Selection and Seeding.The additional coaches ranking that was added in 2015following conference/qualifying tournaments proved valuable
to the committee. The committee recommended that thecoaches ranking criteria priority be increased to 15 percent ofthe selection and seeding formula and that the number ofmatches be eliminated as a selection and seeding criteria.The committee will use the following modified weightedcriteria formula to select at-large wrestlers.

Criteria Weighted Percentage
Head-to-head 25%
Quality wins 20%
Common opponents 10%
RPI 10%
Qualifying placement 10%
Coaches rank 15%
Win percentage 10%

For 2016, the committee recommends that the qualifyingtournament placement selection and seeding criteria only be awarded to wrestlers who earn a pre-allocated spot in theirrespective conference tournament. This puts more emphasis
on the conference tournaments, rewarding conference champions and wrestlers that place within the earned allocatedspots.

The definition of a quality win will remain the same.
However, a tiered structure will be added to the formula that considers the strength of the quality wins and not simply the number of quality wins. This will provide a better picture ofthe full body of work
