List of NCAA rifle programs
The following are schools that field collegiate teams in rifle in the NCAA. Since there are only 23 Division I schools, 3 Division II schools, and 3 Division III schools that sponsor rifle, the NCAA holds only a single, all-division championship. There are 2 men's teams, 9 women's teams, and 22 mixed/co-ed teams (the number of teams exceeds the number of schools because four schools field two teams). [1]
All listed schools field a single co-ed team unless otherwise indicated.
