Eight Ohio State teams combined for 537.50 points this winter for the most winter points scored by any school.

Leading the way this winter was the Ohio State women’s hockey team, which won the national championship, and three other teams with Top 10 NCAA finishes: women’s swimming and diving, men’s swimming and diving, and fencing.

Also scoring points toward these latest standings for Ohio State: men’s and women’s basketball, women’s indoor track and field, and wrestling. Teams contributing points through the fall season include football, women’s volleyball and women’s soccer.
