ITA Rankings
GUIDELINES AND RULES – TEAM
RANKINGS FORMULA
Σ(CountWins) / (#OfCountWins + LossPts)
1. The first five national top 25 team rankings of the spring will be decided by vote of the ITA National Ranking Committee. For the remainder of the spring dual match season, the rankings will be based on the ITA computer ranking system. Once the computer ranking system starts up (late February), we will then be publishing the Top 50 teams. If you are outside of the Top 50, there will be a place on the ITA website where coaches can access the full unpublished ranking list. For each countable victory and all losses a team receives a prescribed number of points (see point chart) based upon the national ranking of the opponent defeated. Victories and losses in ITA-sanctioned college dual matches will count towards the team ranking. 2. A team is worth its current value/ranking. If a team drops or climbs during the season, it will always be worth its current ranking each given period. Each ranking period, the ranking average will be figured with the total of countable victories and all loses. If the team has fewer ranked victories than the countable victory total for the period, the rest of the counted victories will be its unranked victories. If the team has more ranked victories than the countable victory totals, the team’s highest countable victories will be those counted. All losses will be considered as countable matches, but losses are also weighted according to opponent rank. 3. The way the points are distributed – points for wins; percentages deducted for losses – they consider a team’s win-loss record, strength of schedule and the depth/significance of wins and losses (with bonus points for away wins). The formula works as follows: Sum of points from ‘x’ best wins for that rankings period divided by [the ‘x’ best countable wins for that ranking period + Points from all losses]. 4. Wins and/or losses versus non-Division I opponents will not be factored into the Oracle/ITA National rankings. 5. The NCAA team champion automatically goes to No. 1 in final ranking. Bonus points are awarded for advancement in the NCAA Team Championships (see point chart). 6. Shortened or alternative formats will not count towards the Oracle/ITA rankings unless a waiver has been issued by the ITA prior to the match.

ITA Rankings
GUIDELINES AND RULES – SINGLES/DOUBLES
RANKINGS FORMULA
Σ(CountWins) / (#OfCountWins + LossPts) 1. The Top 125 singles players and Top 90 doubles rankings will be based on the ITA computer ranking system. For each victory, a player receives a prescribed number of points based upon the national ranking of the opponent defeated (see point chart). 2. Each ranking period, the ranking average will be figured with the total countable victories and losses. If the player has fewer ranked victories than the countable victory total for that period, the rest of the victories will be computed as unranked victories. If the player has more ranked victories than the countable total, the player’s highest-ranked victories will be those counted. All losses will be considered as countable matches, losses against higher ranked players will not count as full matches but rather as percentages of matches played (see point chart). A player’s/team’s worth changes each rankings period since the computer does its calculation using the opponent’s rankings from the most recent previous rankings period. 3. A ranking is figured by the individual receiving points for each countable victory in ITA-sanctioned tournaments and dual matches to date. The sum of all the countable wins for the ranking period is the player’s ranking point total for that period. The total ranking points is divided by the number of countable wins added to the points from losses. The computer calculated average = Sum of points from ‘x’ best wins for that rankings period divided by [the ‘x’ best countable wins for that ranking period + Points from all losses]. 4. A match must have started for a player to receive ranking credit for the win or the loss. Players do not receive or loss points for defaults or walkovers. 5. Unfinished individual matches do not count toward rankings. 6. The way the points are distributed – points for wins; percentages deducted for losses – they consider a player/team’s win-loss record, strength of schedule and depth/significance of wins and losses (with bonus points for away wins). 7. There are no bonus points for advancement at individual tournaments. 8. Only results from ITA-sanctioned tournaments can count towards a player’s ranking. 9. Through the second computer singles rankings, players who play an opponent who was listed as insufficient data in the preseason and/or January ranking and is currently unranked will receive credit/discredit for a win/loss at their opponent’s final ranking from the previous season and/or preseason ranking (for first and second computer rankings only). 10. Wins and/or losses versus non-Division I opponents will not be factored into the Oracle/ITA National rankings. 11. Shortened or different formats approved by the ITA may also count towards rankings (if both coaches have agreed on this prior to the match).
