When it comes to the qualifier rankings let’s start with what they are and what they aren’t. Simply put, they are meant to be fun and at some level informative. They are not based on a true mathematical formula or algorithm put together by MIT experts. They are biased in the sense that the info used comes from Vballrecruiter.com’s national rankings. The factors taken into consideration are 1) percent chance of qualifying; 2) number of eventual qualifiers; 3) percentage of teams eventually qualified from the field; 4) number of nationally-ranked teams; 5) percentage of nationally-ranked teams in the field; and 6) average ranking of those teams. There are some obvious flaws with the way the averages are generated. For example, coming up with the chance of qualifying is done from subtracting the number of teams already having a bid from the number of teams in the field and then using the number of bids available and dividing that by the number of teams without a bid. This, of course, doesn’t take into account the odds of trickle down and get into the nitty-gritty of that. However, I do feel there is a lot to be taken from the overall rankings and that even though the system is far from perfect it is fairly reflective of the strength of each individual qualifiers. Generally speaking, the rankings match up with the “eye test” if you will of the qualifiers. The field sizes are so much smaller in 14 Open than the other age divisions and it makes it interesting, though it all remains relative to one another. While it was not surprising to see MEQ come out on top, it was surprising to see Show Me rank at No. 2 and Red Rock rank last.

There was no doubt looking at the 17 Open division at the Salt Lake Showdown that it was extremely difficult this season and therefore it wasn’t surprising to see it average out as the toughest in 17 Open in 2025. Conversely, Big South didn’t seem as strong as it has been in other years and it showed in the rankings, as Big South averaged out as the least toughest qualifier in 17 Open in 2025.
