*Team's RPI has been adjusted to remove negative effect from defeating weak opponent.
The PairWise Ranking is a system which attempts to mimic the method used by the NCAA Selection Committee to determine participants for the NCAA Division III hockey tournament. The PWR compares all teams by these criteria: record against common opponents, head-to-head competition, and the RPI.
For each comparison won, a team receives one point. The final PWR ranking is based on the number of points (comparisons) won. Ties are settled by the RPI.
The PWR can be reformatted and redistributed by any media outlet or person, provided USCHO's URL (https://www.uscho.com/) accompanies the results.
Note: A team's record is based only on games against other Division III hockey schools which are eligible for the NCAA Tournament.
Forfeit wins do not count in the PWR and have been removed.
