San Jose State Women, Princeton Men Top Mid-Major Rankings

The first CollegeSwimming.com Mid-Major Division I Ranking has been released.  San Jose State ranks just ahead of Eastern Michgan in the women's ranking while defending champion Princeton University holds a slight edge over Missouri State University.

Now in its 11th year, the Mid-Major Rankings serve to provide an objective point system to compare teams’ relative strength in a traditional dual meet lineup. The ranking is available to those institutions that a) are not members of a BCS conference or Mountain West Conference, or b) provide fewer than one-half of the allowable scholarships under the NCAA rules.
