team tourney scoring

[nwilfan]

Probably seems like a stupid question to some of you but I've heard different things from different people on how team scoring is done at tournaments.

How exactly do teams get their points at regionals. Is it a set amount of points per win? Does it matter how you beat them (pin, tf, maj., etc..) and what about byes which put you into the next round are there no point consideration? Do wrestleback wins count just as many points as a quarter or semifinal win? etc..

Thanks in advance for your help.

I got this from the IHSA website...hope this helps you out.

G. Team Scoring:
1) According to IHSA by-law

3.054, all member schools must have

competed in at least six (6) contests to be

eligible for team honors. Entries may be

accepted for individuals from member schools

who have not met the six (6) contest

requirement, however, no team points will be

awarded to these individuals. If an individual

should place, points for that place will not be

awarded.

2) In all Individual Regional

Tournaments scoring shall be: first place, 14

points; second place, 10 points; third place, 7

points; and fourth place, 4 points.

3) In all Individual Regional

Tournaments, two (2) additional points shall

be credited to a team's total for each fall during

the tournament and two (2) points for each

default, forfeit and disqualification. In the

championship bracket, a team shall also be

awarded two (2) points for each match won

except in the championship final match. In the

consolation bracket of Regional Tournaments,

a team shall be awarded one (1) point for each

match won except in the third place matches.

In addition, in both the championship and

consolation bracket one and one-half (1 1/2)

team points shall be awarded each technical

fall and one (1) team point shall be scored for

a major decision victory margin of eight (8) or

more points.

Note 1: In all Regional Tournaments, if a

wrestler received a bye in the preliminary

round of competition, they shall be awarded

two (2) advancement points for that round if

they win the next match. In addition to the

advancement points, they shall be awarded for

the bye the same number of "bonus" points, if

any, they earned for winning their first match

by fall, forfeit, default, disqualification,

technical fall, or major decision. In Regional

Tournament consolation brackets, wrestlers

receiving byes in the preliminary round of

competition shall be awarded one (1)

advancement point and applicable "bonus"

points if they win their next match.

4) See Rule 9-2-2 a, b, c, d, e,

regarding the recording and posting of team

scores after the semifinal matches in Regional

Tournaments.

5) At the Individual Sectional and

State Final Tournaments, no individual team

Thanks for your help, a lot to try to remember/track.

I wonder if other tourneys do different variations, based on what some other people have told me.
