The NCAA Power Index (NPI) is a ranking system used in Division II and Division III to evaluate team performance based on game results and the strength of opponents. These factors are used to calculate each team's NPI value and ranking.
NPI rankings are updated throughout the season as teams compete in additional matches and opponents' NPI values change. Final rankings are not determined until all matches and rankings for the season are complete.
MoWest will look to strengthen its regional standing as the Griffons continue MIAA play during the final stretch of the regular season.
