Duquesne Dukes Fan Forum / Pittsburgh Hosts Championships

Duquesne is hosting the women's volleyball Final Four in December 2019. They are also hosting the men's basketball Round 1 & 2 in 2022 (they already were hosting the same rounds in 2018).

For what it's worth, Pitt is hosting the national wrestling championships in 2019, and Robert Morris is hosting the men's Frozen Four in 2021. I mention these as well because they're also in PPG Paints Arena.

Pretty cool that all of these college championships are being held in our backyard.

Really good news for Pittsburgh. Lets be honest though, Pitt might technically be hosting the wrestling championships, but penn state is the real host. PPG will be at least 50% psu fans the way they've been dominating lately.

And Duquesne has really been hustling

In 2018 AJPalumbo Center will host the D2 and D3 NCAA women's vb championships

And the D2 Field Hockey championship will be played at Rooney Field

Finally in 2022 the D3 NCAA wbb championships to be held at Palumbo.

All those events will be hosted by other schools but held at Duquesne.

That Sports Pittsburgh organization has down an awesome job bringing events to town.

I heard they are also bidding on World Figure Skating Championships
