NCAA to announce over 500 championship sites

WHAT:     The NCAA will be announcing the final host sites for 82 of the 89 championships from 2014-18. After receiving over 1,984 bid applications for future NCAA championship hosting opportunities, the final 523 championship event sites will be announced on NCAA.com at www.ncaa.com/site-selections.

WHEN:      Wednesday, Dec. 11, 2013
1 p.m. Eastern

WHY:      A new NCAA championship bid process creates the largest host site announcement ever, spanning 82 championships across a four-year cycle. Previously, selection announcements varied by sport. This process now gives the NCAA and host sites more time to plan each championship experience.
