The national champion Stanford Cardinal made the jump from No. 15 all the way up to No. 1 after defeating Oklahoma State 4-3 to win the NCAA Championship. Oklahoma State moved up four spots from No. 12 to No. 8 but anyone who saw them play would say without a doubt they were a top 5 team.

Cal stayed at No. 2 after a semifinal appearance while Florida, who was No. 1, dropped to No. 3 after losing in the Round of 16 to Stanford. North Carolina fell one spot to No. 4 and Vanderbilt came up one spot to No. 5.

There were several teams that made big jumps or falls with Baylor coming up eight spots to No. 32, Rice coming up seven spots to No. 41, and TCU coming up six spots to No. 31. Duke and NC State took the biggest tumbles inside the top 50 with each falling five spots to No. 14 and No. 40 respectively.

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

These rankings are also used to to determine who will host ITA Kick-Off Weekend regionals though many of the top program usually opt out which means teams in the 20s will probably have a chance at hosting. I’ll have more information on the Kick-Off Draft, which takes place on June 9th, as they become available.

    Last year's cutoff for hosting National Indoors was Georgia Tech at #20. USC #2, Florida #6, Baylor #8, Stanford #11 and Clemson #18 chose not to host in 2016.
