2024-25 Dan Hodge Trophy Award Rankings

2025 Dan Hodge Trophy Rankings

Gable Steveson and Carter Starocci are going to be neck-and-neck all season long for the #1 spot, but I gave Gable the edge with his 100% bonus rate. 

I gave a bump to the guys who won CKLV. It's the toughest regular season tournament of the year. If you go through that two day gauntlet, you deserve it. Guys with less matches fell down the ranks as results from this season alone will start to weigh heavier.

I left Keckeisen and Beau Bartlett at the #19 and #20 spots despite losing at the All-Star Classic with the caveat that the event is technically an exhibition. If they go undefeated the rest of the season, their official records will show them as undefeated on the year and they will likely be finalists eligible for voting. However, I have included the All-Star results in the records and stats below.

Hodge Trophy Voting Criteria:

1 – Record

2 – Dominance/Bonus-Point Percentage
