JR WPH proudly collaborated with the United States Handball Association in presenting the R48 and WR48 Pre Qualifiers at the 2026 USHA National Collegiate Handball Championships. 178 collegiate players entered, having the chance to not only play for the prestigious USHA National Collegiate title, but also a travel stipend and entry into a Race 4 Eight stop on the 2025/26 Race 4 Eight season.
Minnesota State Mankato’s Mark Doyle won the Men’s USHA National Collegiate title and Minnesota State Mankato’s Clodagh Munroe won the Women’s USHA National Collegiate title, with both earning stipends and entries towards the March 2026 LAAC Race event.
“JR WPH was very excited to inspire the 178 collegiate players playing in the 2026 USHA National Collegiate Handball Championships to earn a trip to a Race 4 Eight stop,” stated the WPH’s David Fink. “JR WPH has sponsored several collegiate Race 4 Eight Pre Qualifiers during the 2025/26 season and we have enthusiastically welcomed new collegiate faces on the tour this season as a result.
