I was curious to see how the current individual rankings compared to the top 10 coaches poll. I used a simple point system to compile some data for each team with ranked athletes. Below are the results for the top 10 teams based on individual rankings. This type of point system is very basic, it does not include bonus points or points generated by non-ranked wrestlers. I thought it would be cool to share and spark some good wrestling conversation.
I think that the coaches poll does a great job ranking teams in a dual meet setting, and this point system ranks the teams more in line with Open Results. Enjoy and share your thoughts!
Point System:
Ranked 1 = 6pts
Ranked 2 = 5pts
Ranked 3 = 4pts
Ranked 4 = 3pts
Ranked 5 = 2pts
Ranked 6 = 1pt

This is definitely cool. One error is Xavier and Trumbull are tied. You gave Matt Ryan a 2 instead of a 3. Another thing that would mix it up is maybe partial points for HM. One more thing is every weight class to be fair should have top 6. i saw atleast 1 that stopped at 4 or 5.
Updated. Nice catch
Yea I was thiking about adding HM as a half point and I agree with you on the partial rankings, I could only use the data that was available to me via the site.
👍🏻
Rankings were updated . Jack
