happy NCAA teams week 5

Spencer’s weekly update:

Last season, it look an NQS in the 197.9s to rank in the top 4 (seeded to make the championship), in the 197.4s to rank in the top 8 (seeded to make nationals), in the 196.9s to rank in the top 16 (seeded to make the regional final), and in the 196.2s to rank in the top 36 (advancing to regionals). …

Right now, we see only the current top 4 with any scores at that 197.9 level, reinforcing the gap they have created between themselves and everyone else and the likelihood that they stay in those positions. …
