1987 team scoring details
How each team’s points add up: advancement, bonus and placement points, calculated from every bout under the 1985 scoring rules. The official standings are on the 1987 tournament page.
Calculated points against the published standings
Points are calculated from the 1987 bouts under the 1985 rules: advancement (including byes), bonus, guaranteed-place increments, and any documented adjustments. 113 of 117 programs match the published total exactly; 4 differ; 50 are not listed in the published standings.
Wrestlers from College Division, later Division II and III, programs competed at these championships but their points did not count toward the team title, so the NCAA’s published standings do not list those programs.
