The first NCAA regional rankings were released this afternoon. Further rankings will follow on Feb. 18 and Feb. 25, along with one on Sunday, March 1, which we do not get to see.
If you’ve missed it, the men’s region formerly known as the Midwest was renamed the Central Region this season, and the WIAC was moved into that region from the West. Other conferences moved, primarily between the Atlantic and Mid-Atlantic regions, for both men and women. Need to know more about the regional rankings process and what they mean?

The first record is Division III record, followed by overall.
Through games of Sunday, Feb. 8.
