Wrestling Postseason Formats

The eight teams with the highest number of quality points qualify for the single-elimination tournament one day tournament held on the first Saturday of February. Quality points are determined by the following:

- Each victory over a team in Division I-A earns 4 points multiplied by the number of victories that defeated team has

- Each victory over a team in Division I-B earns 3.5 points multiplied by the number of victories that defeated team has (for example if team A beats team B which is in I-A and has 10 victories, team A will garner 40 quality points for that one win)

- Each victory over a team in Division II-A earns 3 points multiplied by the number of victories that defeated team has

- Each victory over a team in Division II-B earns 2.5 points multiplied by the number of victories that defeated team has

- Each victory over a team in Division II-C earns 2 points multiplied by the number of victories that defeated team has

- Each victory over a team in Division II-D earns 1.5 points multiplied by the number of victories that defeated team has

Quarterfinals: No. 1 vs No. 8, No. 2 vs No. 7, No. 3 vs No. 6, + No. 4 vs No. 5

Semifinals: Winner of 1-8 vs winner of 4-5 and winner of 2-7 vs winner of 3-6 and the two winners face off in the finals
