Overview

Get ready for the 2024 National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championships. The season-long race between Iowa, King, McKendree, and North Central continues after successful regional tournaments by all four teams. 

Every NCAA team regardless of division (I, II, and III) competes at the National Collegiate Women's Wrestling Championships. 

Iowa and McKendree squared off at Region V with the Hawkeyes taking down the Bearcats by 27 points. Iowa’s Reese Larramendy secured the upset of the season when she knocked off 2023 Senior World teamer Emma Bruntil of McKendree. Bruntil won NCWWC titles in 2020 and 2021 and returned to college competition for the first time at regionals. 

McKendree’s three-time national champion Cam Guerin continues to shine in the post-season with a dominant run through the 130-pound bracket. She is seeking her fourth title and plans to return for a possible fifth title if she wins this year. 

The Hawkeyes squared off in three regional finals:
101: Emilie Gonzalez (Iowa) won by decision over Sterling Dias (Iowa) (Dec 7-0)
116: Brianna Gonzalez (Iowa) won by decision over Felicity Taylor (Iowa) (Dec 9-3)
155: Marlynne Deede (Iowa) won by decision over Bella Mir (Iowa) (Dec 8-4)

North Central dominated its Region IV with an impressive 113-point victory over runner-up Aurora, winning nine of 10 weights with a finalist in every weight. The Cardinals also had three teammate vs teammate match-ups but none were contested.

King outdistanced Emmanel by 53.5 points for the Region II title. The Tornado had eight champions, nine weights with a finalist, and four King vs King matchups in the finals.

101: Jessica Corredor (King University) won by decision over Avery Kibelbek (King University) (Dec 6-4)
116: Samara Chavez (King University) won by fall over Melanie Mendoza (King University) (Fall 1:01)
123: Montana Delawder (King University) won by decision over Virginia Foard (King University) (Dec 5-0)
143: Aine Drury (King University) won by tech fall over Yasmine Oliveira (King University) (TF 10-0)

Tournament Format

The National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championships will have 24 wrestlers per bracket compared to 20 last year. 

Each team can qualify up to 15 wrestlers, but only one at each weight can score. If a team has two wrestlers in the finals (it has happened before) then only the champion will score. However, this can prevent another team from earning placement points. 

Bonus points cannot be scored if two wrestlers from the same team face each other. This prevents a coach from fixing matches to get additional team points. Below is a breakdown of how tournament scoring works.

Reminder: women's college wrestling uses freestyle rules so there are no major decisions.

Championship advancement: 1
Consolation advancement: 0.5
Technical superiority: 1.5
Fall: 2

Placement points
First: 16
Second: 12
Third: 10
Fourth: 9
Fifth: 7
Sixth: 6
Seventh: 4
Eighth: 3
