KANSAS CITY, Mo. - (Brackets |Watch Live) The brackets for the second annual NAIA Women's Wrestling National Championships have been finalized in advance of the event starting tomorrow, March 8th. For additional information on the 2024 NAIA Women's Wrestling National Championships, click HERE.

Brackets were finalized by a 10-member committee consisting of conference raters and oversight members from each of the five sponsoring conferences in the NAIA. A total of 210 wrestlers were placed within the 10 weight classes. All matches at the national championships will be streamed live via FloWrestling. 

Each conference tournament awards automatic bids per weight class based on the final regular-season rating, which can be seen HERE. Each conference is awarded automatic berths based on the number of wrestlers ranked in each weight class. Each conference is awarded a minimum of one automatic bid per weight class, which will go to the tournament champions, even if the conference did not have any wrestlers ranked in the final regular-season poll. If a conference does not have an individual ranked in the final top 16 an allocation will be granted to ensure each conference is represented at each weight class at the National Championships.

After the conference tournaments concluded, a 10-member committee consisting of conference raters and oversight members met to select the remaining national at-large qualifiers. The seeding and preliminary brackets were announced on NAIA.org on Friday, March 3rd.
