The RQS formula really impacts the individual rankings. To calculate the RQS, you must first find a team or individual's top three AWAY scores. From the remaining scores, you select the three highest HOME or AWAY scores. Then, you toss out the highest score and average the remaining five.
PSU's Sharaya Musser takes over the top spot in the AA this week. Musser is also tied for the top spot on BB with Bama's Geralen Stack-Eaton. NU's Erin Davis, who posted a 10 this weekend, is the top vaulter. Florida's Mackenzie Caquatto and Oregon State's Olivia Vivian are tied for first on UB. Stanford's Ashley Morgan remains the top vaulter.
Here's this week's Top 25. The real drama over the next two weekends will be for the teams jockeying for the Top 12, 18 and 36 spot. Because the teams are seeded by rank into the post-season, these "break points" are critical. The top 36 qualify for the Regional meet, and several teams are battling for the top spots. For the Top 18, the Regional seeding format assigns teams according to a specific protocol. The remaining 18 are assigned primarily by geographical proximity. Certain Regionals are nevertheless considered "tough" Regionals, and this assignment could impact the chances of a team to make the National meet.
