The Pairwise Ranking is a system which attemps to mimic the method used by
the NCAA Selection Committee to determine participants for the NCAA Division
I men's hockey tournament. The PWR compares teams at or above .500, judging
them by five criteria: record against common opponents, record in last 16
games, head to head competition, record against other teams at or above
.500, and the Ratings Percentage Index (RPI).
For each comparison won, a team receives one point. The final PWR ranking is
based on the number of points (comparisons) won against teams at or above
.500. Ties are settled by the RPI.
You can see the complete list of all the individual comparisons.
A more complete explanation of the workings of the PWR is also available in
our FAQ. There is also a FAQ available explaining the NCAA Tournament
selection process.
The PWR can be reformatted and redistributed by any media outlet or person,
provided USCHO's URL (http://www.uscollegehockey.com/) accompanies the
results.
Note: A team's record is based only on games against other Division I hockey
schools which are eligible for the NCAA Tournament. In particular, only
non-exhibition matchups between schools in the six major conferences count
towards a team's record as used in the RPI and PWR. Other games, including
contests against Canadian schools and tournament-ineligible D-I programs,
are not counted.
