Quiroga is the only seeded true freshman at 125, but on the same side as Escobedo. He might be able to pull out a 3rd place as a true freshman though, not bad. And Howe ought to win, I'm hoping he heads straight to a national title this year.

Wow...Purdue 6th and IU tied for 8th.  I thought IU would do a little better than that.

 

Congrats to Howe and Angel.  Too bad for Hump, hopefully he can stand atop the podium at the NCAA's.

 

Always enjoy seeing Metcalf lose.

What place do you have to get to qualify?

NCAA Release

 

INDIANAPOLIS - The NCAA has announced the qualifier allocations for the 2010 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships as listed in the chart below.

 

Each qualifying tournament was awarded spots per weight class based on current year data. Each wrestler was measured on the following: Division I winning percentage; rating percentage index (RPI); and coaches ranking.  A threshold of a 0.725 winning percentage, top 28 in the RPI and top 28 in the coaches ranking was established to allocate 284 of the 330 championships field positions.

 

For each wrestler that reached the threshold in at least two of the three categories, his qualifying tournament was awarded a qualifying spot in that weight class.  Each qualifying tournament was awarded a minimum of one wrestler per weight class, which will go to the tournament champion, even if they did not have any wrestlers reach at least two of the three thresholds.  NCAA tournament spots for each qualifying event will be awarded at the tournament based solely on place-finish.

 

After all of the qualifying events have concluded, the NCAA Division I Wrestling Committee will meet in-person to select the remaining 46 at-large qualifiers, which will be announced on March 10. All weight classes will consist of 33 wrestlers.  The at-large selections will be made based on the following criteria: head-to-head competition; qualifying event placement; quality wins; results against common opponents; winning percentage; RPI; coaches ranking and the number of matches contested at that weight class.
