Wrestling team standings come from dual meets: one wrestler from each team in each weight class, and the result of each bout earns team points. Under the NFHS and NCAA rules for folkstyle duals, a decision is worth 3, a major decision 4, a technical fall 5, and a fall, forfeit or disqualification 6. The team with more points wins the dual.
A season table counts dual wins and losses, with team points as a tiebreaker. Tournaments are scored differently — with advancement and placement points set by the tournament — and are usually kept as separate results.
