The 1989 NCAA Rifle Championships were contested at the ninth annual competition to determine the team and individual national champions of NCAA co-ed collegiate rifle shooting in the United States. The championship was held at (what is now known as) the Pat Spurgin Rifle Range at Murray State University in Murray, Kentucky.[1]
West Virginia, with a team score of 6,234, retained the team championship, finishing 54 points ahead of South Florida. It was the Mountaineers second consecutive and fifth overall national title.
The individual champions were, for the smallbore rifle, defending titlist Deb Sinclair (Alaska–Fairbanks), and, for the air rifle, Michelle Scarborough (South Florida).
Since there is only one national collegiate championship for rifle shooting, all NCAA rifle programs (whether from Division I, Division II, or Division III) were eligible. A total of seven teams ultimately contested this championship.
