Special Schedule Notes
- The tournament is not seeded by ability, since there is no equitable means to determine the respective strength of the teams. Too few teams play outside of their division schedules to create an accurate seeding. Match-ups are therefore based upon the amended 2017 National Collegiate Club Championship results by division. The host region receives two automatic bids, one of which is assumed by the division champion and the other by the host site or division runner-up (the 16th position). This ensures the tournament host is always a participant.
- The No. 1-to-9 seeds are based exclusively on the order of finish at the 2017 Women’s National Collegiate Club Championship hosted by the University of Pittsburgh. Due to the University of Utah (Rocky Mountain Division) using an ineligible player and Washington University in St. Louis (Heartland) electing to leave early, the No. 10-to-15 seeds are impacted for the 2018 National Collegiate Club Championship. Since both Mid-Atlantic Division Championship representatives finished 10th and 11th, the Mid-Atlantic Division Champion claims the No. 10 seed with the 12th place finisher a year ago (North Atlantic Division) moving up to No. 11. The Atlantic Division claims the No. 12 seed due to the University of Virginia finishing the tournament in a tie with Washington University in St. Louis at No. 13. The Heartland Division drops back to the No. 14 seed due to Washington in St. Louis not playing out the tournament to a normal finish (electing to leave early and playing in earlier games). The New York Division earns the No. 13 seed as 2017 division champion Columbia University finished in a tie for 15th but bypasses Washington University in St. Louis by completing the tournament to a natural finish. The Rocky Mountain Division earns the No. 15 spot due to the use of an ineligible player and forfeiture at the 2017 event by Utah.
- Teams listed first wear dark caps and are home on the scoreboard. The host team always wears dark caps and is listed first on the scoreboard regardless of seed.
