For the first time, Touchdown City will become Championship City as Morgantown will host the 2019 NCAA Rifle Championship and the 2021 Gymnastics Regional Championships. The rifle team has won five consecutive national championships while posting scores over 4,700 points, including an NCAA record 4,723 last year. The Mountaineers won 11 national championships from 1986 through 1998.
We are incredibly excited to host the 2019 NCAA National Championships. We’re especially excited because this will be the first time WVU has hosted a final championship in any sport. I am positive the University and the WVU Athletic Department will host a first-class championship.
