The Sports Commission was recently awarded two more national events during the month October. These events are the 2009 & 2010 USA Wrestling Cadet Nationals (June) and the 2010 AAU Girls Basketball Division 1 National Championship (July). Both events will see visitors come to Rochester from across the country.
Two events are coming to Rochester this month. The NJCAA Division III Volleyball National Championship will be held at the UCR Regional Sports Center on November 14-15. The top 8 teams from across the country will compete for this championship. Rochester will then host the North Star Football Bowl Game on November 22 at the recently completed Rochester Regional Stadium on the RCTC Campus. The North Star Bowl will feature a showdown between two top teams from Minnesota and two at-large teams. Complete details on these events can be found under the "Events" tab.
