The first edition of the 2019-2020 National Wrestling Coaches Association NCAA Women’s team and individual rankings compiled by the ranking committee has been released on Monday December 16th, 2019.


The Tournament Team rankings are based on points for each individual ranking in correlation with what that respective placement would earn at the National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championships to be held March 6-7th in Adrian, Michigan. That point system is as follows:

1st – 16 points

2nd – 12 points

3rd – 10 points

4th – 9 points

5th – 7 points

6th – 6 points

7th – 4 points

8th – 3 points


Teams will be permitted to enter two wrestlers per weight class, but only 15 total. Each team may receive points from only one wrestler per weight class.


McKendree University in Illinois is No. 1 in both the dual meet and the tournament rankings.
