  • FSC and Rollins still have not skied a collegiate tournament, so they remain unranked.
  • The Midwestern and the South Central are tied for the most teams in the top ten with three each.
    • The highest ranking Midwest team is the University of Wisconsin – La Crosse Water Ski Team at seventh.
    • The highest ranking South Central team is the University of Louisiana at Lafayette Water Ski Team at second.
