The 2013 NCAA Bowling Championship was the 10th annual tournament to determine the national champion of women's NCAA collegiate ten-pin bowling. The tournament was played at Freeway Lanes in Canton, Michigan from April 11–13, 2013.

Contents

Nebraska defeated Vanderbilt in the championship match, 4½ games to 2½ (211–199, 186–197, 156–169, 190–190, 196–189, 202–182, 246–200), to win their fourth national title. The Cornhuskers were coached by Bill Straub.

Nebraska's Liz Kuhlkin was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player. Kuhlkin, along with four other bowlers, also comprised the All Tournament Team.

Qualification

Since there is only one national collegiate championship for women's bowling, all NCAA bowling programs (whether from Division I, Division II, or Division III) were eligible. A total of 8 teams were given at-large bids for this championship, which consisted of a modified double-elimination style tournament.
