We developed a formula to rank the top 25 athletes in NCAA Division I track and field based on who will make the most impact at the 2016 NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Oregon. FloTrack's Week 10 Power Rankings have some big changes.

After not updating the rankings since week 8 and the NCAA fields now set at 24, there have been many changes to the top 25 on both the men's and women's sides. On the men's side we see for the first time in power rankings history a new men's #1 in Arkansas' Jarrion Lawson. Lawson is a potential individual scorer in three events and is Arkansas key athlete to have a shot at the team title. On the women's side Tennessee's Chelsea Blaase and Texas' Courtney Okolo made big jumps in the rankings while heptathlete Kendell Williams dropped out of the top 25.
