Beginning March 20, Blue Ridge Outdoors’ Top Adventure College Tournament, sponsored by LOWA, asks readers to pick their favorites in a 32-school bracket brawl. The initial 32 colleges and universities were selected for their outdoor clubs and curricula, their commitment to outdoor and environmental initiatives, the quality of their outdoor athletes and programs, and their local opportunities for adventure. Rally students, alumni, and supporters around your school. Vote 1 time per round, and voting for each round ends at 11:59PM. The school receiving the most votes advances to the next round.
Round of 32: March 20-27 | Round of 16: March 28 – April 3 | Round of 8: April 4 – April 10
