The National Collegiate Bowling Championship is April 12-14 in St. Louis. The last time the Huskers were in St. Louis, they returned with the 2015 national championship and Nebraska is the only program to qualify for the NCAA Championship in each of the 15 years that bowling has been an NCAA-sanctioned sport.

The Huskers have won in six of nine tournaments titles this season, with two runner-up finishes. McKendree, Arkansas State, Vanderbilt, Sam Houston State and North Carolina A&T round out the remainder of the seeded field. The tournament has a new structure this year that includes bunny bracket games on April 6 between Texas Southern and Lincoln Memorial for the seventh seed and Bowie State and Saint Francis (Pennsylvania) for the eighth seed.
