INDIANAPOLIS — The 2026 National Collegiate Women’s Gymnastics Championships regional selections were announced by the NCAA on Monday.
The top 36 teams based on the national qualifying score (NQS) were selected for regional competition. The committee named the top 16 teams and seeded them in the bracket. Teams 17-36 were placed geographically at one of the four regional sites. Nine teams will compete at each of the four regional sites. The NQS at the time of selections will be maintained for seeding throughout the championships.
The committee also selected the top 12 all-around competitors and top 16 event specialists based on the NQS and placed them geographically into one of the four regional sites while adhering to the selection procedures. The list of all-arounders and individual event specialists included individual-qualifying scores from the teams competing in the first round to ensure those individuals will compete in the individual competition if their team does not advance from the first round.
In the event of a tie for the last berth into regional competition and for seeding purposes, the team, all-around competitor or individual event specialist with the highest score, not including the six used to calculate the NQS, qualified. If a tie still existed, the process was continued until the tie was broken.
The qualifying teams and individuals are listed below. The Baton Rouge and Tempe regionals will be conducted Wednesday through Saturday, April 1-4. The Corvallis and Lexington regionals will be conducted Thursday through Sunday, April 2-5.
