The Virginia Tech Hokies have landed the top spot in the NCAA Women’s Softball Ratings Power Index (RPI). The RPI is determined by three primary factors: the team’s winning percentage, the average opponent’s winning percentage, and the average opponents’ opponent winning percentages.
Most recently the Hokies are coming off an 18-2 devastation of East Tennessee State, but before that they handled the No. 14 (Coaches) / No. 9 (Softball Collegiate 25) Clemson Tigers thrice with 6-1, 4-0, and 4-2 victories in South Carolina. The Hokies are 15-2 overall with two losses against the No.
