One of my favorite things to do after big tournaments like the Walsh Ironman is to look at results through the lens of college recruiting. While a number of Ironman placers have yet to make their college decision, many have committed already and a good deal have signed their National Letters of Intent.

So, which college "won" Ironman based on their incoming recruits? Let's take a look at the top 25. You can check out full results here.
