Post by jdalu75 » Mon Dec 07, 2020 8:20 am

Posted recently on the NCAA website. The championship manual goes into greater detail and can be found here: https://s3.amazonaws.com/ncaaorg/champi ... Manual.pdf



2020-21 NCAA DIVISION I WRESTLING PRE-ALLOCATION FORMULA

1. Scenario #1 (100% of traditional brackets).
330 wrestlers (33 wrestlers per weight class).
• Pre-allocations. The champion at each weight class for all conference tournaments.

(2) Historical data to pre-allocate 220 (66% of field) other spots across the conferences.
(3) Committee uses selection criteria to select 40 at-large (13% of field).
• Brackets need to be balanced so allocations will need to be by weight class.

Historical data? Did they define that? I forget when they stopped using that but I think Pat was still at UMd or very shortly thereafter and after I stopped working the event after 2006.

Let's hope the NCAA did not strike a deal with wrestlestat.com

PIAA is going to only 8 man bracket for Hershey.
I would lean that NCAA goes to 16 man bracket to minimize the numbers of people in the arena.

The NCAA had almost a year to do that, and didn't.

Has the Pre Champs Manual been updated? The manual shown at the the link provided no longer lists three scenarios. Now it simply states 330 qualifiers.

Top of page 10. Section 2-1.
"The NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships shall be conducted in the following 10 weight classes (33 wrestlers

The Pre Champs Manual hasn't been changed. I received an e-mail on 12/7 that had a pdf with that pre-allocation formula, with the three scenarios. I've since been told that Scenario #3 has been dropped. We'll have 33-man brackets so long as at least 39 teams are competing; 24-man if we drop below 39 teams. But nothing in writing to that effect, natch.

Edit: What does look new is the 2020-21 Qualifier Allocation Criteria; I haven't seen this before, so it is in writing: https://ncaaorg.s3.amazonaws.com/champi ... iteria.pdf
