NCAA Wrestling Coaches Ranking And RPI Released
The NCAA released their latest NCAA Wrestling D1 Coaches Ranking and RPI today.
Today the NCAA released the latest D1 Wrestling Coaches and RPI rankings. Per the NCAA, "the RPI is a calculation that consists of three factors: winning percentage, opponent winning percentage (strength of schedule) and opponent’s opponent winning percentage (opponent’s strength of schedule). Only matches against Division I opponents at the designated weight class count towards the RPI and a wrestler needs to have wrestled 15 matches to be ranked."
The coaches panel is made up of 14 coaches per weight class. Coaches rankings have significance because of their role in setting the seeds for the NCAA tournament. One ranking sticks out among the rest as two-time NCAA Champion Roman Bravo-Young is currently ranked 3rd. Roman has not lost since March of 2020 and is ranked #1 by every ranking publication and is a perfect 11-0 on the year. Below you can see both coaches and RPI rankings.
