We've passed the mid-point of the season and we're approaching the final stretch.  With March we see a mad dash to secure coveted Regional Seeds and qualifying spots.  The National Rankings have now switched to the Regional Qualifying Score or RQS.  The RQS is computed by taking a team's top three away meet scores and assembling the next highest three scores (home or away).  The high is discarded and the results are averaged.  The Top 36 teams qualify to the Regionals, and the Top 18 are seeded and distributed among the six Regional sites (more on this later).
