Rankings have been set for the top eight wrestlers for each of the six Olympic weight classes based on following criteria: 1) head-to-head victories, 2) wins over common opponents and 3) whether or not an athlete was a member of the 2015 U.S. World Team. Results that were considered include any tournament an athlete has competed in since Jan. 1, 2015. This includes both domestic and international matches during that time period.
A computer system which compiled all of the relevant data was used to help create these rankings.
By winning a medal at the 2015 World championships Adeline Gray has advanced to the best-of-three Championship Series at 75 kg and will not participate in the morning Challenge Tournament in Iowa City.
The following rankings will serve as the baseline for which athletes will be seeded at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials. All athletes who have currently qualified for the U.S. Olympic Team Trials are listed below, but only the top-eight have received a ranking. At the seeding meeting in Iowa City, all of the athletes entered will receive a seed and byes will be placed accordingly to the highest seeded wrestlers.
Official U.S. Olympic Team Trials seeding per weight class is subject to change based upon the coaches seeding meeting after wrestlers weigh-in in Iowa City.
Men's freestyle rankings were released on April 1. The Greco-Roman rankings will be released tomorrow on April 6.
