Ponzi Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 This is a question--I don't know the answer. What is the team with the smallest number of qualifiers to win the NCAAs? Or place in the top 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threadkilla Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I think Penn State had 6 at least one year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the answer to the first question...Arizona State with 7 in 1988 is the lowest since they started having qualifiers. Not sure about top four. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11986 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I think Iowa St only had 5 qualifiers when they placed 2nd in 1996. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome coaching job by the Minnesota staff to keep everyone in it after such a brutal round and a couple things I didn't know. Hahn getting upset and coming all the way back to win 6 matches and the Nail in the Coffin, plus taking the Trophy around to all the Bars IN Iowa...hilarious! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should break it up into the "modern" era vs the...less modern era. I mean, Indiana won one with 14 points. Spending just a few minutes, I see Iowa State won in 1933 with 4 qualifiers. 3 Champs and a DNP. OSU had 3 and a 3rd place finisher. They tied for the title. Still, just 7 weights, but 4 champs and they were team champs. So that'd seem to be the right answer. Going post 1972(When Freshmen were eligible to compete) 5 seems likely. Could have been a team that won in the early years with 3, but I found 4 and I was done looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
