2024 Dan Hodge Trophy Award Rankings

2024 Dan Hodge Trophy Rankings

Better late than never! The FloWrestling Dan Hodge Trophy Award rankings are back as we head into the final two months of the college wrestling season. Who are the favorites? Who are the contenders? Who are the dark horses? What conference will the winner come from? If you're looking for some clues, our pound-for-pound ranking is a great place to start. As a reminder, however, the Dan Hodge Trophy has set criteria to determine who the winner should be.

Hodge Trophy Voting Criteria:

1 – Record

2 – Dominance/Bonus-Point Percentage

3 – Quality of Competition

4 – Sportsmanship

The return of the NWCA All-Star Classic and non-D1 matches no longer counting on official records added an extra wrench into things. As the Hodge is awarded based on votes and voters will likely be influenced by the outcome of those matches, I thought it was best to include all results in my data. However, I did not include any medical forfeits and/or injury defaults as they can skew bonus point numbers.
