It’s Cham­pi­onship Week in the NCWA

DALLAS - Championship Week begins this weekend at nine locations around the country. The road to earning on of the 490 qualifying spots in the NCWA Men's National Championships starts with the conference qualifiers, as all nine of the NCWA conferences are in action.



Listed below are the dates and times of each conference's postseason tournament, plus the amount of qualifying bids (previously released) each conference has as well as its total of wildcard berths. Qualifying bids are based in part by size of conference (total number of wrestlers) and the strength of conference (taken from the NCWA Power Rankings). Wild card bids are handled by each conference as they see fit and are typically given to the stronger weight classes for that particular conference.
