Final Men's Team Rankings

The ITA actually put these final team rankings out last week on May 25th but I didn't make a release because I didn't want it to get lost in the shuffle with the NCAA Tournament still in progress.

The national champion Virginia Cavaliers finished at the top spot while UCLA finished at No. 2 and TCU finished at No. 3. Oklahoma made the biggest jump in the top 10 by rising four spots from No. 10 to No. 6 after making a run to the finals. Cal moved up four spots as well by coming up from No. 13 to No. 9 after making it all the way to the semifinals.

Stanford and SMU had the biggest increases with each coming up eight spots to No. 21 and No. 22 respectively after each made it to the NCAA Round of 16.


Teams were able to earn bonus points based on performance at the NCAA Tournament - below is the chart that shows how many points were earned for each round.

Bonus points for NCAA Team Championship

Advance to second Round - 1 point added to overall average

Round of 16 - 2 points

Quarterfinals - 3 points

Semifinals - 4 points

Final - 6 points

Champion - Automatically ranked No. 1

Texas moved up two spots to No. 16 while Illinois fell three spots No. 18 which means Texas should have the chance to host an ITA Kick-Off Weekend regional in January while Illinois will have to go on the road. The Kick-Off Weekend regionals determine which teams get to play at the National Team Indoors which will take place in Charlottesville in mid-February. The draft for the Kick-Off Weekend will take place on June 8th so look for a post in the coming days.

The only team to drop out of the top 75 was St. John's while Portland came in at No. 74.
