CHICAGO -- All eight Ivy League schools were ranked in the National Collegiate Scouting Association's Eighth Annual Collegiate Power Rankings, seven ranked amongst the top 15 NCAA Division I institutions and in the top 46 of all colleges and universities.
NCSA Athletic Recruiting's Collegiate Power Rankings assess the
academic and athletic standards of all NCAA athletic programs
across the country. The mission of the Power Rankings is to help
prospective student athletes and their families evaluate the
particular strengths of the top colleges and universities in
Division I, II and III level institutions. Seven Ivy League
Conference schools are in an elite group of less than 6% of
colleges and universities across the nation to make it on NCSA
Athletic Recruiting's Top 100 for 2010.
Chris Krause, CEO and Founder of NCSA Athletic
Recruiting, says, “The Power Rankings are an objective tool
to empower student athletes to find the right fit in a college or
university, not only for its athletics, but academics as well. Our
hope is to educate these student athletes and their parents on the
importance of evaluating schools that will provide the education
for an enriched, successful career after college, in addition to
athletic success.”
The Collegiate Power Rankings from NCSA Athletic Recruiting are
calculated for each Division I, II and III college and university
by averaging student-athlete graduation rates, academic rankings
provided by U.S. News & World Report, and the strength of
athletic departments as determined by the Learfield Sports
Directors' Cup ranking,
These Power Rankings are only one example of NCSA Athletic
Recruiting's commitment to redefining collegiate recruiting.
As the leading athletic recruiting network, NCSA connects more than
35,000 college coaches with student-athletes who hope to pursue
both higher education and the chance to compete in athletics at the
college level.

division, is available at: http://www.ncsasports.org/about-ncsa/power-rankings.
