2021 D2 Women’s Conference Tournament Central

The bracket for this year’s NCAA D2 Championship was reduced from 48 teams to 36 so getting one of the 18 automatic bids is a bigger deal than normal. Below are the 18 conference championships that are being contested through the end of April/beginning of May. There were two conferences not playing this year due to COVID.

The other 18 at-large bids will be determined by regional rankings which were most recently published on April 25.

The breakdown of bids by the 8 regions are as follows:
