Tournament Field: Many criteria will be used to determine the final tournament field. Every year it is a painstaking process that we approach with a great deal of effort. However, due to the increasing number of applicants, we will not be able to provide teams with individualized explanations of why they were not accepted into the tournament field. Thank you for your understanding.
Parking Fee: Ohio State may charge for parking in the campus lots during our tournament this summer. Once we receive more information, we will pass it along.
