Top 30 Rankings — Nov. 15, 2016 (Week 10)
This is a set of rankings from an older poll. We keep all our polls online for archival purposes. You might want to view the current Top 30 rankings or read how we determine rankings.This year's Grand National Championships included a couple of significant firsts.

For the first time ever, there was a tie for first place in finals, which was broken by the GE score, in accordance with the BOA adjudication handbook.
For the third time ever, Carmel was named Grand National champion. They are now one of five schools to have won Grand Nationals three times, and one of only eight schools to have won more than once.
There are very few schools that are able to retain the level of excellence in competition that Carmel has for such a long period of time. And there's no reason to think they won't continue to be in the running for the national champion title for many more years to come.
Most of this week's adjustments reflect placements from the weekend's Grand Nationals, but most people will notice that Carmel is not in the No. 1 position. Unfortunately Flower Mound and Broken Arrow did not compete at Grand Nationals this year, but we're excited to see both of these groups return to Indianapolis next year.
