Bell Heads to Tulsa After Receiving NCAA At-Large Bid

McKenzie Bell Qualifies For NCAAs at 141

LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ- On Tuesday afternoon, the NCAA announced 47 at-large selections for the 2023 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships in Tulsa, and McKenzie Bell is the final Bronc traveling to Tulsa as Bell secured an NCAA at-large qualifying bid at 141. Bell will join #6 Ethan Laird and #22 Quinn Kinner in Tulsa from March 16th through the 18th for the NCAAs.

Bell had an impressive season in 2023 posting a staggering 26-8 record overall including 11 straight before entering the Mid-American Conference Championships. However, at the MAC Championships Bell would fall out of podium contention following a medical forfeit. 

The at-large selections were made by the NCAA Division I Wrestling Committee using the following selection criteria: head-to-head competition, quality wins, results against common opponents, winning percentage, rating percentage index, coaches ranking, and conference tournament finish.

Seeding and brackets for this year's event will be revealed tomorrow, March 8, during the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships Selection Show on NCAA.com at 8 p.m. ET.
