These regional rankings are not official. They are calculated based on in-region RPI, which is not a criteria of the NCAA selection committee. All data comes via d3hoops.com.
I finally found the time to go through and identify neutral site games, so the regional rankings are now "fully operational." You may notice that the 'SOS' and 'RPI' columns are now noted 'wSOS' and 'wRPI'. This is to signify that these numbers are calculated as weighted numbers (they're using the OWP and OOWP adjustments as described in the NCAA handbook).
Keep in mind that these rankings are really just a starting point. I don't adjust the rankings to account for head-to-head matchups or common opponents or anything, so feel free to adjust as you see fit.
Take the West Region for example. UW-River Falls is listed as #1 (by pure numbers), but you can go ahead and mentally adjust St. Thomas into that spot by virtue of their head-to-head victory. Same possibly goes for Calvin and Hope in the Great Lakes.
[Update:] I've had a few questions about Pool A designation today. I'm handing out the 'A' bid to the team with the highest rating. I simply can't (and won't) go through every conference to determine the leader at this point in the season. And since the Pool A bid goes to the conference tournament champion (except in the UAA), I'm OK with this shortcut.
