The 2016 NCAA Rifle Championships were contested at the 37th annual NCAA-sanctioned competition to determine the team and individual national champions of co-ed collegiate rifle shooting in the United States.[1]
The championships were held at the Stile Athletics Field House at the University of Akron in Akron, Ohio.
Three-time defending champions West Virginia again won the team championship, the Mountaineers' eighteenth NCAA national title in rifle.
West Virginia's Ginny Thrasher became the fifth person to win both individual championships and the first since 2013.
