                RPI rankings are updated on an hourly basis but are not calculated for teams with missing scores from the previous day.

                RPI is a tool developed for all team sports using the official KHSAA/Riherds Scoreboard data, modeled after, but not identical to, similar measurement tools. It is provided for a variety of reasons, including district tiebreaking and football bracketing, and as a means to increase publicity, interest and promotion of interscholastic athletics.

                        INDIANAPOLIS, IN (April 16, 2026) — In an effort to establish a more healthy process for girls involved in high school wrestling, the minimum body fat percentage for females has been raised from 12 to 19 percent, effective with the 2026-27 season.

                        Revisions to weight-control rules (1-5-1, 1-5-2) were two of 18 rules changes recommended by the NFHS Wrestling Rules Committee at its March 29-31 meeting in Indianapolis. All rules changes were reviewed by the NFHS Rules Review Committee and approved by the NFHS Board of Directors.

                        In making this significant change, the committee reviewed information from the National Wrestling Coaches Association, the proud supporter of the NFHS, and had the backing of the NFHS Sports Medicine Advisory Committee.

                        The committee determined that based on peer-reviewed research data, increasing the body fat percentage for high school girls establishes a safer margin [...]]]> https://khsaa.org/2027-and-2028-football-alignment-compiled-feedback/ Fri, 17 Apr 2026 13:50:29 +0000 https://khsaa.org/?p=78322 https://khsaa.org/2024-2025-triennial-survey-compiled-results/ Thu, 16 Apr 2026 15:57:57 +0000 https://khsaa.org/?p=78317
