INDIANAPOLIS – The NCAA Division III Wrestling Committee announced Monday the selection of six sites to host the 2013 Division III Wrestling Regional Championships.
The selected sites and host schools are:
| DATE | REGION | LOCATION | VENUE | HOST |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| March 2 | Central | Dubuque, Iowa | Five Flags Center | Loras |
| March 2 | East | Ewing, N.J. | Student Recreation Center | TCNJ |
| March 2 | Mideast | Ada, Ohio | ONU Sports Center | Ohio Northern |
| March 2 | Midwest | Elmhurst, Ill. | R.A. Faganel Hall | Elmhurst |
| March 2-3 | Northeast | Worcester, Mass. | Sports and Recreation Center | WPI |
| March 3 | West | Minneapolis | Si Melby Hall | Augsburg |
The six-site regional format is part of a new qualification process for the Division III Wrestling Championships, approved by the Division III Championships Committee in April. The format says that the top-three wrestlers from each weight class will advance to the championships from each of the six regional sites, allowing for a total of 180 qualifiers.
The previous Division III wrestling qualification system consisted of seven automatic-qualifying conferences and two NCAA sponsored regionals that moved 170 student-athletes onto the championships through automatic bids and at-large selections.
Student-athletes advancing out of the 2013 regional championships will compete at the Division III Wrestling Championships scheduled for March 15-16 at the Cedar Rapids Ice Arena in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
