WIN’s Updated Preseason TPI and Individual Rankings
Photo: Princeton’s Quincy Monday, the 157-pound national runner-up to Northwestern’s Ryan Deakin in 2022, announced recently that he was returning to that weight after considering a move to 165 pounds. That decision earned the Tiger wrestler the top spot in WIN Magazine’s Updated Preseason NCAA Div. I rankings that were updated on Oct. 26. (Photo by John Sachs)
Penn State, Iowa and Arizona State remained the top three teams in WIN’s Tournament Power Index. The TPI is a tally of potential NCAA placement points based on where wrestlers are ranked in the pre-season. This year’s NCAA Championships will take place, March 16-18, in Tulsa, Okla. The following is a point breakdown of the TPI, based on a wrestler’s ranking: 20 for 1st, 16 for 2nd, 13.5 for 3rd, 12.5 for 4th, 10 for 5th, 9 for 6th, 6.5 for 7th and 5.5 for 8th. Wrestlers ranked 9-12 earn two points each, followed by 1.5 points for wrestlers ranked 13-16 and 1 point for those ranked 17-20.
