NCAA Boxing Championship

The following is a list of NCAA Team Champions in Boxing. The National Collegiate Athletic Association discontinued the boxing championship after 1960; however in 1976, American collegiate boxing was picked up again by the National Collegiate Boxing Association.

At the 1960 NCAA Championships Charlie Mohr, a boxer on the University of Wisconsin–Madison team, collapsed with a brain hemorrhage and died one week later.^[1]

Championships

The first year of NCAA sponsorship of the championship was 1932. However, national championships were conducted in 1924-31 as well. Before 1948, NCAA team boxing championships were unofficial because team points were not officially awarded.
