TROY, Mich. – The American Collegiate Hockey Association announced on Monday that Maryville University will assist the St. Louis Sports Commission and the St. Louis Blues host the 2024 ACHA National Championships. The tournament, presented by FloHockey, is set to start on March 7 and run through March 17, 2024, at the Centene Community Ice Center in Maryland Heights, Mo. 
 
The ACHA will use the Maryville University Ice Hockey Center in Chesterfield, Mo., as the site for overflow games and practices as it did during the 2022 ACHA National Championships.
 
"Maryville University is excited to help host the 2024 ACHA National Championships in St. Louis," said Maryville University Director of Hockey John Hogan.  "Along with the St. Louis Sports Commission and the Centene Community Ice Center, we hope we can build from the great ACHA National Championships we held in town in 2022. With two new state-of-the-art facilities in a centrally located city, we believe St. Louis can be a reoccurring destination for this great ACHA event. We look forward to providing the ACHA's student-athletes, friends, families, and fans a once-in-a-lifetime experience."
 
Players from 78 teams across all five ACHA divisions—Men's Division 1, 2, and 3 and Women's Divisions 1 and 2—will converge upon the suburban St. Louis area to compete in more than 110 games over the course of the event.  Twenty ACHA Men's Division I teams will compete for the National Championship from March 7 through March 12, as will sixteen teams from ACHA Men's Division III.  Sixteen ACHA Men's Division II teams will compete for the title from March 11 through March 15.  Ten ACHA Women's Division I teams will play for a shot at the National Championship from March 13 through March 17, while sixteen ACHA Women's Division II teams will compete from March 12 through March 16.
 
"The Centene Community Ice Center is a first-class facility and the Maryville University Hockey Center is an excellent venue, both perfect for our event," said ACHA Executive Director Craig Barnett. "We are looking forward to another tremendous ten days of hockey in St. Louis in 2024."
