Those championships include: EVENT DATE VENUE NCAA HOST INSTITUTION Division I Men’s Basketball March 19 & 21, 2020 Scottrade Missouri Valley First/Second Rounds Center Conference Division II Spring Festival May 10-16, 2020 - Lindenwood Lindenwood University & (6 championships in one University Greater St. Charles city): - Lou Brock Convention and Visitors - Men’s Golf Sports Bureau - Women’s Golf Complex - Women’s Lacrosse - Dwight Davis - Women’s Softball Memorial - Men’s Tennis Tennis Center - Women’s Tennis Division III Men’s & May 18-23, 2020 Dwight Davis Washington University Women’s Tennis Memorial Championships Tennis Center Division I Wrestling March 18-20, 2021 Scottrade University of Missouri Championships Center Division III Women’s November 18-20, Washington Washington University Volleyball Championship 2021 University Field House Division II Wrestling March 11-12, 2022 Chaifetz Arena Maryville University Championships Division II Women’s Lacrosse May 20-22, 2022 Harlen C. Lindenwood University Championship Hunter Stadium “We’re pleased to see the depth and diversity of championships coming to St. Louis and salute the many institutional and venue partners who stepped up to help bring these events to our community,” said St. Louis Sports Commission President Frank Viverito. “To secure at least one division I wrestling championship and a men’s basketball event is an especially important accomplishment because the competition to attract these high-profile, visitor-intensive events is so strong. We’re grateful for the efforts of Scottrade Center and the City of St. Louis to move forward on improvements to the venue, which were instrumental in us being awarded these two championships.” From 1998 to 2022, St. Louis will have hosted at least one NCAA championship event in every year but three. The NCAA Men’s Basketball First/Second Rounds in 2020, hosted by the Missouri Valley Conference, will mark the 13th time St. Louis has hosted a men’s or women’s NCAA basketball postseason event since 1993. In 2021, St. Louis will host the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships for the ninth time since 2000. The Gateway City set the tournament’s total attendance record in 2015 (113,013) and holds the top-three attendance records for the event. The Wrestling Championships is the most visitor intensive sporting event hosted by St. Louis with 97 percent of the fans attending coming from outside of the area. With Maryville University as host, the Division II Wrestling Championships return to St. Louis after a successful experience in 2015. The Division III Women’s Volleyball Championships are back at Washington University for the first time since 2011. The NCAA Division II Spring Festival, hosted by Lindenwood University, is making its debut in the St. Louis region. In addition to the events awarded as part of the 2018-2022 bid cycle, St. Louis is already set to host two NCAA championships next year: NCAA Women’s Bowling and NCAA Women’s Gymnastics. Also in 2018, the region hosts the Missouri Valley Conference Men’s Basketball Tournament, SEC Men’s Basketball Tournament, SEC Gymnastics Championships, and the PGA Championship. The Sports Commission just completed a run hosting three NCAA championships in the last month – Division I Wrestling, the Women’s Frozen Four, and Women’s Gymnastics. The St. Louis Sports Commission is the privately-funded nonprofit organization that grows, strengthens and moves St. Louis forward through sports. The organization uses the power of sports to enhance the area’s quality of life and generate economic and social benefit for the St. Louis region. .

  • Things to Know About Volleyball Recruiting
    THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT VOLLEYBALL RECRUITING Terms to Know NCAA Clearinghouse or Eligibility Center (eligibilitycenter.org) – is the NCAA office that certifies a student-athletes academic credentials to be eligible for Division I and II athletics. You cannot make an official visit to a DI or DII school without being at least registered with the clearinghouse. NCAA Division I – 325 Volleyball teams at some of the most well known schools (Florida, Texas, Duke, Rutgers, Seton Hall, Rider etc). Division I schools are permitted to offer scholarships to up to 12 student athletes for volleyball. Schools that are “fully funded” will only offer full scholarships. Partially funded programs will split scholarships and stack with academic and need based aid money to make you an offer. The season is August and into December, with off-season training through the spring and even summer months at many schools. This is the highest level of college athletics, and is the most demanding. NCAA Division II – 250ish Volleyball teams at lesser known schools (Felician, Georgian Court, Tampa, Lemoyne, Millersville, CW Post). Division II schools are permitted to divide the value of 8 full scholarships among a larger number of student athletes. Many DII schools only have between 1-3 scholarships, which they divide and stack with academic and need based aid, but seldom is it a full package. The season lasts from August through November, with either a limited spring training season, or they have recently approved the addition of beach volleyball as a spring sport which some schools may be adding soon. NCAA Division III – 425 Volleyball teams at a variety of schools (including NYU, Chicago, Johns Hopkins, Williams, Scranton, Kean, St.

    Lacrosse Scholarship and Recruiting Information This packet includes information, links and suggestions for tackling the NCAA lacrosse recruiting and athletic scholarship process. This information is consolidated from multiple sites and sources and is intended for information use ONLY. Many portions are cut from A High School Athlete’s Recruiting Guide To College. This is a great reference available at http://lacrosserecruits.com. The contents of this guide should not be reproduced for sale or profit. In addition, the Guide for College-Bound Athletes is a great resource for LOTS of information. http://www.ncaapublications.com/productdownloads/CBSA.pdf COLLEGE LACROSSE SCHOLARSHIPS AND RECRUITING How many lacrosse scholarships are available and what schools offer them? Number of scholarships offered per team / per year / by Division: Not all colleges that are eligible to offer scholarships will choose to do so. For example, Ivy League schools choose not to offer athletic scholarships; they instead offer endowments and grants. The plus of these endowments/grants is that they are for all four years of school, not just one year like athletic scholarships (which are usually “re-upped” each June). Lacrosse is an equivalency sport, which means all scholarships are NOT full scholarships, and coaches can divide the value of the scholarships available to them between as many players as they see fit. Full rides are very rare, but NOT impossible. Often, schools workout packages which combine athletic scholarship money and merit based awards (academics).
